I have a lot of reference books on sauces that are constantly on my work area and I find I need them almost as much as The Flavor Bible when deciding what goes with what.
Just thought I'd pass along the book that has quickly become my go to book for inspiration. Grace Parisi is a cooking editor for Food & Wine and over the years I've found if her name is on a recipe, I automatically want to make it.
Her book, Get Saucy, is the best for sauce ideas I've ever read - not classics per se, but just flavorful, imaginative ideas for saucing just about anything.
Included is a section "Sauce Index by Suggested Use" showing which sauces will compliment what foods, a great way to get kick started.
edited to reflect that cjs can not read...maybe she was thinking of another version of 'sauced'
"Get Saucy" Grace Parisi - you won't be sorry, well, Sharon might be 'cause it's a thick book and where will she put it?

Retired and having fun writing cookbooks, tasting wine and sharing recipes with all my friends.
