The SauceTalk Newsletter

We love FREE! So the most recent e-mail newsletter from Club Sauce caught our attention and has some pretty interesting tidbits that we would like to share with you. Club Sauce is a major supporter of this blog and although we are not here to sell but to impart information about sauces, saucing, recipes and such we thought this email was worth sharing with you.

The recipe is timely for spring and the holidays as is the free demi glace offer. We see many questions on the internet about demi glace like what is it, how do you use it or its too time consuming to make at home. So maybe we have found the solution or at least an inexpensive way to try a ready-made product offered by Club Sauce

Below is their recent newsletter with appropriate links to the products and the website that may have the answers you are looking for. Check it out and let us know what you think.

Welcome to The SauceTalk Newsletter. A blog dedicated to all things Sauce.

Sauces have been around I’m sure since man began roasting food, cooking in some fashion or using vessels to hold liquid. The desire to disguise the burned and often over seared flavors of food cooked over an open flame was a cause for curiosity and experimentation. This then led to adding something “new to the pot” so to speak to what may have been a very boring, burned or dried out and flavorless dish.

Dry seasonings and herbs found in the surrounding area were most likely the first steps in adding flavor to food. That was followed by the use of something fashioned to hold water or the moisture being released during the cooking process which then became a sauce or sorts. Even broad leaves such as banana leaves were used to retain moisture and flavor. Then the ingenious clay pot was created and became the most common type vessel for cooking.

There have been volumes written about the history of food, food styles and types, the cooking process and sauces used and infused from one culture to another through the ages. We would like to continue that discussion and to continue to share because there is always something new evolving in the world of food and something new that we can take away and use to improve our own dishes.

This space is therefore dedicated to sharing recipes and information involving food that we can all enjoy, use and ultimately call our very own.

That said let the posts begin!
