Velouté Sauce is a sauce in classical French cooking that is used both a sauce in its own right, and as component in other sauces.
It is a simple sauce, but somewhat labour intensive.
It is made from veal or chicken stock, thickened with a roux. The mixture is brought to a boil, then lowered to a simmer for quite a long time, about 1 1/2 hours, and stirred frequently.
It is then strained, and allowed to cool, with frequent stirring during the cooling period as well.
More modern versions will reduce the cooking time dramatically, relying instead on the addition of cream or egg yolk to speed the thickening along.
When made with fish stock, it is called Velouté de Poisson or Velouté Maigre.
If chicken stock is used, it is called Velouté de Volaille.
Also called: Sauce Blanche Grasse, Sauce Velouté (French)
