18 Reasons: Sensational Sauces

A great sauce is the difference between “I have to cook” and “I have something to eat.” It rescues the tired vegetable, the plain bean, the leftover grain. It turns three things from the fridge into dinner.

In this class, we’ll make five sauces from five different corners of the flavor map: each one built to live in your fridge for the week and earn its keep across multiple meals. We’ll talk through the logic of each: what makes it work, how to adapt it when you’re out of an ingredient, and how far one batch can actually take you.

You’ll leave with the sauces, the techniques behind them, and the instinct for when to reach for which.
