Should sauces be unnecessary?

Sauce is no different than any other ingredient

If something needs seasonings to taste good blah blah
If something needs heat to taste good blah blah
If something needs any level of preperation blah blah

It's a stupid point to make, especially when you consider some foods were made specifically to be dipped in sauce , or did you forget that sauce is a food as well? It takes as much skill to make a good sauce as it does anything else on the planet you might stuff into your face

Food is not fully made until you add the sauce.

It's just another ingredient. Do you think bread is a failure if you "need" to add yeast?

Sauce is part of the meal.

Is pasta shit because it needs sauce?

Is meat shit because it needs seasoning?

>>8900102
boy I sure love plain noodles with absolutely nothing on 'em.

>>8900153
Same

>>8900125
you don't put the yeast on top of the bread after it's baked

So, you're against buttered bread and sandwiches of all sorts? Or literally any food combination that is made from two pieces of food that have been prepared separately?

>sandwiches are cooked

completely different concept

>>8900219
What about a toasted sub

>>8900219
Bread is baked
In order to make a sandwich you add things to bread
By your logic, food should only be eaten as it is once it's cooked and nothing more

What do you mean "extra sauce"? Are you saying dishes cooked in a sauce are somehow different from dishes with a sauce added on afterwards? Does your criteria have to do with sauces that you didn't make yourself being somehow bad? Condiments add and complement dishes, ideally. They are neither "good" nor "bad" and the fact that you think their presence demeans the food suggests flaws in your pattern of thought.

Read some philosophy it might do you good

Sometimes, the sauce can't be cooked along with the meal or it loses some of its interesting attributes.

>>8900102
Some sauces make use of the leftover stuff in the pan that remains when you sear something.

Let's put it like this, you don't often see ketchup on the table at Michelin starred restaurants.

>>8900102
a sauce is not a hindrance, it is meant to be a complimentary

You do, however, see boats of veloute. And sticks and moss, for some reason.

>>8900102
Sauce can be a component to a dish.

PLEASE kill yourself.

Yeah but they don't omit sauces from their dishes either
