About Single cream sauce

Single cream sauce is a versatile, light dairy-based condiment commonly found in European cuisine, particularly French and Italian cooking. Made from single cream—a thinner variety of cream with about 18% fat—it is often blended with mild seasonings, flour, or broth to create a smooth, delicate texture. This sauce serves as a base for pasta dishes, casseroles, or vegetable sides, adding subtle richness without overwhelming flavors. While single cream contains less fat than double or heavy cream, it is still a calorie-dense ingredient, so moderate consumption is recommended for those watching fat intake. It provides calcium and vitamin D, contributing to bone health, but lacks other significant nutrients due to its low protein content. Single cream sauce is appreciated for its simplicity and ability to balance heavier or spiced dishes without being overly indulgent.
