Sauce Boss: A Journey from Classic to Global

I loved diving into this course. It took me from the foundations of béchamel and velouté to the richness of hollandaise, mayonnaise, vinaigrettes, and even global icons like mole, curry, teriyaki, and beurre blanc. The mix of technique, tradition, and international flavor made my sauce skills feel sharper, more confident, and way more inspired
