Foolproof Gourmet Sauces, Dips and Accoutrements: Easy Recipes for Families and Restaurants

Simon Scrutton spent years as an Inspector of Restaurants and Hotels for Egon Ronay's Guides, before which he spent over 20 years as chef/proprietor of Byron's Restaurant in Sussex. During this time, he maintained entries in all the major food guides for 20 continuous years. Being included in The Good Food Guides list of 'Restaurants of the Decade' and winning 'Restaurant of the Year for Great Britain' in one of Egon Ronay's prestigious guides. He manned his kitchen as a solo chef, so had to develop dishes that were both delicious, and could be produced by one pair of hands in a short period of time.Look up your main ingredient, and it will give you your many sauce options. This book includes many of his secrets, equally suitable for the harassed home cook or the restaurant chef. His sauces are timeless, not relying on fleeting fashion, and many can be prepared ahead of time, leaving you the minimum of work before serving. 'Foolproof Gourmet Sauces' is a book that a cook can pick up anywhere and find an interesting read, and includes plenty of sauces for Vegetarians - these are marked with a V.Busy households rely too much on opening a tin of chopped tomatoes, then perhaps enlivening it with a chopped pepper, a clove of garlic and perhaps a few chili flakes - or even using a bottle of supermarket pre-prepared tomato sauce. There's nothing wrong with that, as such - but a bit boring, day after day.
