'The Magic of Saucery' is as inspired as its name suggests - 150 magical recipes based on four simple sauce techniques.
Clear, step-by-step photographs of each sauce-making technique explain each stage of the process and what to do if it should go too far. The simple, foolproof methods for making these sauces - mostly within minutes - are what elevates Sonia Stevenson's cooking into a class of its own.
Among the recipes in this book are Sonia's signature dishes from her celebrated Horn of Plenty restaurant, such as Salmon in Sorell Sauce, as well as new dishes such as Skate Wings in a Nut-brown Sauce with Capers, and Aubergines in a Brandy Sauce.
Above all, Sonia's recipes are always completely accessible and easy to follow. Her imaginative approach is captured in more than 60 full colour photographs and clear step-by-step photographs of the four basic techniques.
