It's not the ingredient.
It's the foundation.
Most people try to fix a sauce at the end.
More salt. More spices. More stuff.
But it's already broken.
And there's no way to save it.
A good sauce isn't corrected.
It's built.
From the heat. From the order. From the process.
If you fail at the beginning, everything else is just makeup.
It's not improvisation.
It's structure.
