Pan Sauces

Pan sauces are à la minute sauces made in the same pan in which ingredients, especially meats, have been sautéed, seared, or pan-fried. Wise cooks know that the tasty brown bits, also known as sucs, left on the bottom of a pan, are as good as gold. By learning to take advantage of these delicious, caramelized bits, you will be able to create quick and highly flavorful pan sauces, which will take each dish you make to a whole new level. In this lesson, we will show you how to develop sucs properly and utilize them to build delicious pan sauces.
