This version turns all 101 sauces in the Atlas into a guided cooking experience.
Open any sauce from Atlas and cook one step at a time. Each screen shows the current action, your progress, and an estimate of the time remaining.
Every guide is now built to help while you cook:
• Clear ingredients for each step, so you know what to have ready and what to add next.
• Timers that appear when an interval matters and stay ready until you start them.
• Temperatures for each phase, with the target range and the reason for the heat change.
• Key points, tips, warnings, and rescues to help you recognize the right moment, avoid mistakes, and recover when something goes wrong.
• Storage and reheating guidance to keep your sauce in good shape for later.
Guided Mode puts SauceLab’s cooking knowledge in your hands at the moment you need it: fewer doubts, more context, and a clearer way to learn while cooking.
Explore sauces, understand why they work, and cook with confidence.
