Objectives of the Course
auces are always prepared separately from the meal and complement the accompanying meal in terms of taste and appearance. It is important that the sauce is made in the desired consistency, that it leaves a good taste in the mouth, and that the tastes of the spices used, such as bitter and sour, are compatible. For this reason, the aim of the course is primarily to explain the basic sauces to the students and make them practice, and to increase their vision and hand skills by making other derivative sauces.
