Velouté Sauce-Sauce MasterClass | No Lumps Veloute
See Recipe Below:
The name velouté actually means velvety. And a velouté is a sauce made from white stock whether that is chicken, veal or fish.
Like a béchamel sauce you start with equal amounts of plain flour and fat, but the fat can be butter, or chicken fat if you wish the intesify the chicken flavour of your sauce. Unlike a béchamel you want to get some colour into your roux to make it a blonde roux.
A velouté sauce is also considered a mother sauce that other ingredients can be added such as white wine, egg yolks, cream, mushrooms, herbs the list is almost endless and yet you don't see a velouté used much in modern cookery, though the term velouté is often used. This sauce also makes a delicious Veloute Soup

Chefs Tips
*You can make a parchment paper circle which you then butter before laying it ontop of the sauce to prevent the sauce from forming a skin.
Once done, season with salt and white pepper to taste. The sauce may thicken slightly as it cools, so if you’re not planning to use it right away, you may need to loosen it up with a bit more hot stock before using.
Velouté sauce can be used in many dishes, from soups to sauces. It goes particularly well with poultry and seafood dishes.
