Sensational sauces can spiff up your repertoire Superior sauce preparation distinguishes a great chef from an average cook. When I was training to become a chef, the area of the kitchen that mystified me the most was the sauce section. I'd gaze in awe at the dozens of pots and pans boiling and reducing to produce truly rich and delicious sauces. I remember chefs trying unique combinations like lamb with raspberry sauce and duck with kiwi sauce. I even remember a chef making a sauce so lemony that we used it to clean a copper pan. It shined like new! Now that I have many sauce-making years under my belt, I understand the importance of using creative sauce combinations that genuinely complement the flavor of a dish, rather than mask it, or end up as a science experiment. By adding sauce to a protein, such as fish, steak or chicken, you can easily create a different texture and layer of flavor that takes a dish from ordinary to extraordinary. A mouthwatering sauce is one of the simplest ways to add value to a dish, and Sargento makes it easy for you, with appealing sauces like our zesty Blue Cheese with Green Peppercorn (now available only in frozen form), which is great as a dipping sauce for chicken wings, or our creamy Chipotle sauce that makes steak nachos extra special. At Sargento Foods, our family's passion is cheese, so it is no surprise that we offer a large variety of delicious cheese sauces that always complement the flavor of the food with which they are served. Let us help you improve your offering with great sauces that customers will enjoy again and again. Back to top
