We need more questions for Chef Todd for my Monday kitchen video interview with him...what are your cooking questions you'd like me to ask him? Please leave them in the comment box below this post! If you're like me, you're avoiding making sauces! And why? Well, probably out of fear. I know that's what's stopped me! You always hear the horror stories of sauces "breaking" or"burning" or "separating" or just plain old not tasting good! So I decided I wanted to overcome my fear, and I did what I've been doing quite a bit of lately. I asked my colleague Chef Todd Mohr for his advice on sauce-making. My "a-ha" moment came pretty quickly because Chef Todd explained sauces to me in such an easy format, even I couldn't miss it! Here's what he said: Sauces are all made up of 3 components: Liquid Provides the body of the sauce.  There are five liquids or bases on which sauces are built, resulting in the five "mother sauces" (leading sauces). Most frequently used sauces are based on stocks. Thickening Agents Sauce must cling to food, needs a thickening agent, must not leave a puddle on the plate and must not be too thick and pasty. Starches are the most commonly used thickeners. Fat is also used. Flavoring Agents Sauce is built in stages and flavors are added at the end if appropriate. This one clarification sent me straight to my kitchen to start experimenting with different Liquid, Thickening Agent, Flavor Combinations. And I hope it does for you. As for making sauces healthy? Try these options, Slowly cook chopped onions and minced garlic over low heat, then blend in a blender with tofu, rice milk, almond milk or coconut milk for a rich, creamy texture. When you cook the onions slowly, they release a lot of flavor that enriches the flavor of the milk . For even more flavor, add fresh herbs to the onions while cooking. If you want a thicker sauce, then prior to adding the garlic and onions, blend cooked white beans, sweet potatoes or yams with any of these same types of milk. For something more like the vegetable stock that Chef Todd used to cook the quinoa in video #5 of this series, simply simmer vegetables, such as carrots, onions, celery, garlic, and spices, for about 30 minutes, starting with cold water. Strain the vegetables from the broth and return the broth to your pan. Continue to simmer the broth on a high temperature to reduce the sauce to about half the quantity, which will intensify the flavor. If you are serving meat or fish, pour this sauce into the pan in which you just cooked the meat or fish, and it will add even more flavor. If you want to thicken a sauce without adding flour, and you want an alternative to the potatoes or beans I mentioned earlier, then a good alternative is to mix a little arrowroot with water. You can get arrowroot powder at most natural foods stores, and some grocery store chains. Add it your sauce at the end just a pinch at a time and continue to cook for just about 3-4 more minutes, giving it time to thicken. Finally, pesto and salsas are fantastic lower-calorie alternatives to sauce. If you need more help with "sauce-making", check out Chef Todd's website "Web Cooking Classes" by clicking here. At the site, he goes into explicit detail about how to make all kinds of sauces for various types of cooking situations. Great news - not only has Chef Todd agreed to be on a podcast, but it's going to be a video podcast straight from his kitchen, so he can demonstrate all his tips and tricks, and answer your questions. So if you have a special technique you'd like to see (ok, maybe he's not going to make an entire Julia Childs recipe, but I'll be he sure can impress us), then simply leave your comments and questions below, and I'll ask Chef Todd during the video podcast!

Yesterday, I promised to reveal to you Chef Todd's quicker, simpler version of Julia Child's Beef Bourguignon, using his knowledge of basic cooking methods over Julia's recipe. Here's what he wrote to me: "Hi Ben, Thanks for the challenge. It was an eye-opener and should turn out to be a great procedure for you to share with your subscribers. When I look at the Julia and Julie Beef Bourguignon, I see two simple words – braising method.  To update this 40 year old recipe, here’s how I’d apply basic cooking methods and creativity to yield beef bourguignon (total time - one hour, using one pan!): 1)     Cooking by basic methods skips the first step of using a calculator to scale the recipe.  From standard portions, I know I need 4 ounces of protein per person, so the only measurement I’ll make is 8 ounces of beef to start. 2)     Julia Child’s recipe has me using 5 different pans.  This adds to clean-up time.  To start, I’d use one pan, my covered 12 inch braising pan. 3)     The original recipe calls for beurre manie, and uncooked roux, to thicken the gravy after 2 ½ hours of cooking.  Roux without the proteins cooked out of the flour will leave a pasty taste in your gravy.  The first change I’d make is dredging the dried beef cubes in flour to start.  The combination of flour and fat in my braising pan will yield a cooked roux, and eliminate 2 pans. 4)     After browning the dredged meat, I’d add all the vegetables I desire.  Whether onions, garlic, carrots, celery, or tomatoes, I get to choose what goes into the dish, and the amount of each.  This eliminates a lot of back-and-forth to the recipe book, and another dirtied pan. 5)     After sautéing the beef and vegetables, now is the time to deglaze the pan with red wine.  This will lift any fond and roux from the bottom of the pan.  After all the wine has evaporated, you can start to build the gravy by adding some beef broth. 6)     Cover the pan and simmer on the stove top, or place in your oven until the flavors combine, the gravy thickens, the meat tenderizes, and vegetables cook. That’s how I see this recipe as a basic cooking method that can be accomplished with any substitutions of ingredients, and any amount of ingredients you’d like. Recipes are a great way to get ideas of what to cook, but an understanding of basic cooking methods are ALWAYS necessary to infuse the skilled judgment of the cook.  Cooking with your eyes, ears, nose, and fingers always gives you power over the shortcomings of recipes." So - thanks to Chef Todd, I think we all have a great classic "recipe"that will impress without the work!

You know the one, right? - [video http://www.bengreenfieldfitness.com/videos/Ben4Grill.flv How To Grill !] Be sure to check out the end of this post for even more from Chef Todd! I finally saw “Julia and Julie”, the movie. You know the one, right? It's about how twenty-something home cook Julie Powell recreated 524 recipes in 365 days from Julia Child’s cookbook “Mastering the Art of French Cooking”. It’s a great movie, especially if you’re a fan of food, cooking, and Julia Child. If only Hollywood could take over ALL cookbooks, because in Julia and Julie, every Julia Child recipe comes out perfectly on the first try for Julie Powell, a home cook with no culinary training! She makes hollandaise perfectly the first time. Her Spinach Souffle looks like a magazine photo on the first shot. Hollywood makes everything easier. I have great respect and admiration for Julia Child.  She brought high-level French cooking ideas to American households at the precise time that TV dinners and convenience foods were being mass-produced in the US.  Julia’s degree from Le Cordon Bleu in Paris enabled her to write these recipes because of her extensive culinary education combined with her passion for food and cooking. In the movie, Julie Powell has no culinary education, but does have passion for food. So I asked Chef Todd Mohr the following question: "Is passion enough to be able to prepare every recipe in Julia Child’s cookbook?" His answer? "Unfortunately, NO, it’s not." Not in real life at least. Take the centerpiece of the movie, Julia's Beef Bourguignon recipes. It’s not that Boeuf Bourguignon is a particularly difficult recipe to complete, but as with all recipes, especially Julia Child recipes, there are basic cooking methods behind the recipes that need to be understood.  Following lines of a recipe without knowing the visual cues is like driving your car blindfolded, but with a road map. You may have all the directions, but you’ll miss all the visual information necessary to know how your trip is progressing, and to know when you’ve reached your destination. So - I challenged Chef Todd to prove his point, and I asked him the following: "How would you use basic cooking method to simplify Julia Child's famous recipe?" Stay tuned to the next post to find out what he said! Great news - not only has Chef Todd agreed to be on a podcast, but it's going to be a video podcast straight from his kitchen, so he can demonstrate all his tips and tricks, and answer your questions.

I still need your help! During a discussion we recently had, Chef Todd told me that most people buy so many kitchen tools and gadgets that they don't really need. As a matter of fact, he recommends just 4 essential kitchen knives. Here's his synopsis of what you really need for successful kitchen prep: French (Chef’s) knife- Offers the greatest versatility for most cutting and chopping. Used in a rocking motion where knife tip always touches the cutting board. Boning knife - thinner, pointed, used for cleaning meats and removing bones. Paring knife – small, short knife, most often used for cutting fruit. Used in one hand, pulling the edge toward your palm in opposition to pressure applied by the thumb Slicing knife – longer knife with serrated edge, for cutting bread and slicing meats in a sawing fashion. Proper knife skills are essential for the type of quick and easy kitchen prep that Chef Todd teaches. You've probably been to his website by now, but in case you haven't, you should know that he gives out a bunch of other cooking secrets in other free videos on his website, along with online cooking classes!
