- Key Terms to Know
- Slide 3
- 1. Au jus French for "with [its own] juice"; jus is the juice
itself. In American cuisine, the term is mostly used to refer to a
light sauce for beef.
- Slide 4
- 2. Bisque Rich cream soup that uses shellfish as the base.
Lobster Bisque Shrimp Bisque
- Slide 5
- 3. Bouillon (great for the home cook) Concentrated cubes or
granules which dissolve in water to provide a broth(stock).
- Slide 6
- 4. Broth or Stock Base for complex soups and sauces or the
water in which meat, fish, or vegetables have been boiled; stock
Beef Broth
- Slide 7
- 5. Consomm A clarified broth, completely strained of all
particles and sediments; often served as an appetizer or used as
the base for a soup.
- Slide 8
- How would you clarify? Straining (using a strainer) Use a very
fine-meshed sieve to strain out all the large bits from the broth,
and then strain it again through 3 or 4 layers of fine cheesecloth.
Skimming (using a basting & slotted spoon) While the stock is
simmering, you can skim off the froth that accumulates on the
surface, several times. Chill for a couple of hours until a thick
layer of foam and/or fat has collected on the top. Skimming this
off will remove particles caught in the fat.
- Slide 9
- 6. Cornstarch Fine, white powder that is pure starch made from
the endosperm of the corn kernel used to thicken; twice the power
of flour.
- Slide 10
- Great recipes that use cornstarch to thicken: Orange Sauce

- Slide 11
- Egg Drop Soup - Chinese soup of beaten eggs in boiled chicken
broth. Garnished with sliced chives.
- Slide 12
- 7. Gelatinization Thickening process using starch granules
absorbing water through heat and swelling; acids interfere with the
process.
- Slide 13
- The science of gelatinization process where starch and water
are heated & starch granules swell. As a result, the water is
gradually absorbed in an irreversible manner. This gives the system
a thick and transparent texture. The result of the reaction is a
gel, which is used in sauces, puddings, creams and other food
products, providing a pleasing texture.
- Slide 14
- Pasta is an example. Pasta is made mostly of semolina wheat
(wheat flour) that contains high amounts of starch. When it is
cooked in boiling water, the size increases because it absorbs
water and it gets a soft texture.
- Slide 15
- Slide 16
- 8. Roux (French term) Mixture of equal amounts of flour and fat
to one cup of a liquid; medium thickness = 2 Tbsp flour and fat to
one cup of liquid.
- Slide 17
- 9. Sauce Flavored liquid that is often thickened and served to
enhance the flavor of another food; not hide it.
- Slide 18
- Do you know the colors of the basic 5 sauces? Red White Blonde

- Slide 19
- 5 Basic Sauces are Hollandaise or butter sauce (yellow) Bchamel
or white sauce Velout or blond sauce Espagnole or brown sauce and

thickened with a brown roux.
- Slide 26
- 14.Veloute Blonde or light stock-based sauce, thickened with a
roux or a liaison, a mixture of egg yolks and cream.
- Slide 27
- 15. Hollandaise Yellow sauce made from an emulsion of egg
yolks, butter and lemon or vinegar
- Slide 28
- 16. Tomato Red or tomato-based sauce
- Slide 29
- 17. Mirepoix a combination of onions, carrots, celery, and
sometimes other vegetables. Often, the less desirable parts of the
vegetables that may not otherwise be eaten (such as carrot skins
and celery ends) are used.
- Slide 30
- 18. Bouquet garni is a bag of herbs placed in a sachet. Herbs
are dependant on availability and local traditions; in classical
cuisine, the bag consists of parsley, bay leaves, a sprig of thyme,
and etc.
- Slide 31
- 19. Fish Stock is made with fish bones and finely chopped
mirepoix. It should be cooked for 2025 minutescooking any longer
spoils the flavor
- Slide 32
- 20. Chicken stock (Fond Blanc) Poultry or white stock, is made
by using raw bones and white mirepoix. Chicken bones are the most
common for fond blanc.
- Slide 33
- 21.Beef stock Brown stock (beef) in which the color is achieved
by roasting bones and mirepoix. Veal bones are the most common type
used. Tomato paste is often added (sometimes thinned tomato paste
is painted onto the roasting bones). The acid in the paste helps
break down the connective tissue helping accelerating the formation
of gelatin, as well as giving color to the stock.
- Slide 34
- Slide 35
- 22. Vegetable Stock is an excellent substitute for chicken
stock, and is a must for all types of vegetarian cooking. To make 4
cups of vegetable stock use 2 large onions, 2 medium carrots, 3

- Sauces, Soups and Stews What do these foods have in common:
peppery shrimp gumbo served at a New Orleans restaurant;
- Slide 43
- homemade chicken gravy passed around at a family dinner
table;
- Slide 44
- tomato soup ladled out in a school cafeteria?
- Slide 45
- Each one ---- stew, sauce, & soup starts from one basic
formula: a liquid plus something to thicken it.
- Slide 46
- Their differences come from the proportion of one ingredient to
the other and from the ingredients added by imaginative chefs.
- Slide 47
- To make soups, stews, and sauces, you need a liquid. What
liquid do I use? The choice depends on the other ingredients in the
recipe.
- Slide 48
- For a hearty vegetable beef stew, already filled with a variety
of flavors, you could use just water.
- Slide 49
- A mild soup based on one vegetable benefits from fruit juice or
broth. Sweet Corn Soup Tomato Soup
- Slide 50
- What is broth/stock? Broth or stock is a flavorful liquid made
by simmering meat, poultry, fish or vegetables in water for
hours.
- Slide 51
- A broth is also a worthy end for food scraps seafood shells,
vegetable peels, animal bones with some meat attached.
- Slide 52
- Homemade Broths can be time-consuming. You may decide to
purchase store-bought versions.
- Slide 53
- If there is no time to make a homemade broth, you can buy
ready-made. Choices? Canned, ready-to-use broth comes in several
varieties including reduced sodium, fat-free, and vegetarian.
Concentrated cubes or granules are dissolved in hot water. This
form is often labeled bouillon.
- Slide 54
- Homemade Broths or Stocks
- Slide 55
- After simmering leftovers, the liquid is strained and
ingredients are discarded. Cool quickly and remove the fat that
rises to the surface and sets. Homemade broth should be used within
4 5 days or frozen up to 3 months. Vegetable Broth Beef Broth
- Slide 56
- Thickening Methods used to make Sauces, Soups & Stews
- Slide 57
- 1. Reduction (pizza sauce recipe) is one method allowing the
liquid to reduce through evaporation. The liquid thickens while
simmering uncovered (evaporation).
- Slide 58
- 2. Cornstarch may be used to thicken a liquid. The thickening
process called gelatinization allows the starch granules to absorb
water and slowly swell.
- Slide 59
- is used to thicken a liquid by making a roux. A roux is a
mixture of equal amounts of flour and fat to 1 cup liquid. 3. Flour
(white sauces)
- Slide 60
- The fat may be butter, margarine or fat drippings from cooked
foods (chicken, beef, pork, sausage, bacon, etc.) The longer the
flour is browned, the darker the roux.
- Slide 61
- 4. Beans, split peas and other high-starchy foods are effective
thickening agents. 3 Tbsp of grated raw potato per cup of liquid
will thicken. Add about 15-20 minutes before the end of cooking
time. Soups and Stews
- Slide 62
- 5. Eggs are less effective than starch but they add richness
and flavor. 1 large egg or 2 yolks will thicken 1 cup of
liquid.
- Slide 63
- Eggs curdle easily. Beat the eggs lightly, stir in a small
amount of the hot or acidic liquid. Slowly, pour the mixture into
the rest of the liquid, stirring constantly. FYI: Curdling or
weeping: When egg mixtures such as custards or sauces are cooked
too rapidly, the protein becomes overcoagulated and separates from
the liquid leaving a mixture resembling fine curds and whey.
Hollandaise Sauce
- Slide 64
- Recall: How do we thicken? Reduction/Evaporation Cornstarch
Flour Roux (= Tbsp amts fat/flour + 1 c liquid) Eggs Beans

- Slide 65
- Sauces Inspired by Italian chefs, the French elevated sauce
making to an art by the 1800s. Today, a sauce is a flavored liquid

food. The definition includes ketchup & cream-rich sauces
served over shellfish.

lemon juice over a double boiler. The yolks are the emulsifier that
holds the mixture together.
- Slide 68

- Slide 69
- Historians give credit to two versions of the origin of Eggs
Benedict: 1860s -Credit is given to Delmonicos Restaurant, the very
first restaurant or public dining room ever opened in the United
States. In the 1860s, a regular patron of the restaurant, Mrs.
LeGrand Benedict, finding nothing to her liking and wanting
something new to eat for lunch, discussed this with Delmonicos Chef
Charles Ranhofer (1899 -1936), Ranhofer came up with Eggs
Benedict.
- Slide 70
- 1894 - The following story appeared in the December 19,1942
issue of the weekly New Yorker Magazine "Talk of the Town" column
and is based on an interview with Lemuel Benedict the year before
he died. In 1894, Lemuel Benedict, a Wall Street broker, who was
suffering from a hangover, ordered some buttered toast, crisp
bacon, two poached eggs, and a hooker of hollandaise sauce at the
Waldorf Hotel in New York. The Waldorfs legendary chef was so
impressed that he put the dish on his breakfast and luncheon menus
after substituting Canadian bacon for crisp bacon and a toasted
English muffin for toasted bread.
- Slide 71
