"I think customers are wanting something more distinctively flavoursome, which makes it an exciting time for sauces and chefs’ creativity.” That’s the word from , chef/owner of Bloodwood Restaurant & Bar in Sydney’s Newtown

Consumers are no longer wanting the heavy, stock-based sauces of the past – and chefs are responding accordingly by focusing on lighter versions, which focus on extracting as much flavour as possible out of fresh ingredients like fruits and vegetables to create vibrant contemporary stylings. https://tinyurl.com/3ekwdad9
