🥘 Ingredients

1 pint of white stock (No. 107), thickening of flour and butter, or white roux (No. 526), a faggot of savoury herbs, including parsley, 6 chopped mushrooms, 6 green onions.

👨‍🍳 Method

Put the stock into a stewpan with the herbs, onions, and mushrooms, and let it simmer very gently for about 1/2 hour; stir in sufficient thickening to make it of a proper consistency; let it boil for a few minutes, then skim off all the fat, strain and serve. This sauce, with the addition of a little cream, is now frequently called velouté.

📜 From Mrs Beeton's Book of Household Management (1861). Public domain.

This one hit different

I tried Sauce Tournee this week, craving something hearty and classic to warm my soul. I found the process delightfully simple and old-fashioned. The fragrance of the savory herbs, especially parsley, filled my kitchen as it simmered gently. I was surprised by how much the green onions added – their mild, sweet flavor brightened the entire dish. This sauce would be perfect for a weeknight cook who appreciates a little nostalgia. I enjoyed it drizzled over some roasted chicken, but I can see it pairing beautifully with fish or vegetables. The key to its charm is in the simmering – don't rush it. Let the flavors meld together slowly, and you'll be rewarded with a sauce that's comforting and full of depth. Don't forget the cream at the end – it transforms this classic into a velouté, adding a touch of modern indulgence.
