Etymology

The term 'saucier' comes from the French word 'sauce', which refers to a liquid or semi-liquid substance served with or used in the preparation of food to add flavor. The origin of 'sauce' can be traced back to the Latin word 'salsus', meaning 'salted', as many early sauces were primarily used for seasoning dishes. Over time, the role of the saucier evolved, particularly in French culinary traditions where sauces became intricate components of gourmet cooking. The ranks in a classical kitchen brigade system, established by Chef Georges Auguste Escoffier in the 19th century, included the saucier as a key position, highlighting its importance in gourmet food preparation. Today, while the fundamentals of sauce-making remain the same, the craft has expanded, and sauciers are regarded as specialists in their field.
