Can Cooking School Help You To Become A Saucier?

By Katie Onson


Chances are that you are not going to eat foods like pasta or beef on their own. More likely than not, you are going to have to integrate products like gravy or tomato sauce into the equation; these types of additions are often seen as the responsibility of a saucier. This is an individual who is very much learned, not only in regards to cooking school but the working world that he or she has trained to become involved in. For those who are curious about becoming sauciers, a few details should be noted.

One can make the argument that a saucier must be able to create sauce alone but this couldn't be any further from the truth. In fact, you may find out that a saucier must be able to create a number of other products, ranging from gravy to even pasta, though said responsibilities may shift from one company to the next. Regardless, no one can argue with the fact that sauce can help to make a number of meals. As a result, a certain level of complexity may be brought to the forefront.

If a saucier has the desire to expand his or her level of work to greater extents, the creation of new dishes may be seen. Of course, one can make the argument that there are few new things that can be done, in this day and age, though this is unlikely to stop sauciers. Not only can they create a number of dishes, most of them related to pasta, but they possess the ability to create new dishes as well. Of course, the proper motivation must be set in place beforehand.

In order for a saucier to prove him or herself as effective, it's important to note that there is a tremendous amount of effort required. Keep in mind that sauciers have to be able to graduate from culinary college, which should go without saying. En route to the desired degree, though, students may want to focus on attaining part-time work in a related company. Along with the possibility of earning an internship, it's clear that a wealth of experience may soon be attained.

No one can argue with the fact that a saucier has the potential to create the best results on the culinary front. However, in order for the best results to be gained, I believe that there has to be a level of learning done beforehand. While school is undeniably important, training in the art of cooking must also be gained. Only when these pieces of the proverbial puzzle come together will a culinary specialist be able to consider him or herself an effective saucier.
