The Encyclopedia of Sauces for Your Food

A sauce is the finishing touch to any dish. Over, under, or drizzled across whatever you have prepared, it lifts your dish from a plate with "stuff" on it, to an elegant offering worthy of being served to your most deserving guests. Finding a sauce recipe to complement a dish you've lovingly prepared can be difficult at best, maddening at its worst. In THE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF SAUCES FOR YOUR FOOD, Charles A. Bellissino has eliminated the frustration of finding just the right sauce for any dish you make. The chapters are organized by the foods that you will be dressing. So, if you are going to prepare a veal dish, look in Chapter 6 and you will find seven sauces just for veal. And that is what this book offers you...well over 400 ways to enhance almost any food that you will serve to those you love. Of the recipes in the book, some are easy, some are not, some are quick, some are not. Some give you the opportunity to put on a table-side-show "a la flambe". However, all of them will win you the admiration you deserve from those you feed.
