The Book of SAUCES - Vintage COOKBOOK on PDF format - 144 PDF Pages
by C. Herman Senn - Original Release Date: 1915

This rare and comprehensive culinary classic, authored by the renowned chef C. Herman Senn, is an essential guide to the cornerstone of classical French and English cuisine: the art of sauce-making. Originally published in 1915, this book remains one of the most authoritative references for professional chefs and culinary historians alike.
The volume provides an extensive collection of approximately 500 recipes, ranging from the fundamental "Mother Sauces"—such as Espagnole, Béchamel, and Hollandaise—to hundreds of sophisticated derivatives for meats, fish, vegetables, and desserts.
Beyond recipes, Senn offers deep insights into historical techniques, including the various types of roux, the precise art of "liaisons" (thickening), and the preparation of compound butters and savory glazes.
Key Features:
Comprehensive Scope: Includes savory sauces, sweet dessert sauces, salad dressings, and homemade condiments.
Classical Techniques: Detailed instructions on traditional thickening agents and stock-making.
Historical Context: A fascinating look into early 20th-century gastronomy and the evolution of sauce-making.
