skills 1 Day 12

Espagnole Sauce



Jus Lie Sauce

 Day 12 we made Espagnole Sauce which is one of the five mother sauces and we also made Jus Lie sauce. We did our knife tray as usual in 45 minutes and then when we had completed that it was time to watch chef's demo on the sauces. They did not seem to difficult except they were both some what similar so it got a little confusing at certain points. We were sent to our stations after the demo to begin our production for the day. It took about an hour but we were given an hour and fifteen minutes, we started at 9:00 am and we had to be finished by 10:15 am that day. Everyone finished on time luckily. If everyone does not finish on time it puts the chef in a bad mood so it is in your best interest to be organized and finish on time. It was almost our last day of skills 1, we were moving up in the CIA community we would be in skills 2 before we knew it!
