Sauces

What sort of sauce are you looking for? Tartar sauce and cocktail sauce go with fish and seafood. Barbecue sauce is great on meat and poultry. Sweet and sour sauce pairs well with chicken and Asian cooking. White sauces like Bernaise and Bechamel are classics while Jack Daniel's sauce adds a new flavor twist to cooking.
