Knew I was out about a day after I submitted when I went back and reread the question. Classic case of going too quickly.

I think the last answer was my only good one. My only chance of finishing in the top half is if everyone else sheeped on two of the mother sauces, or missed the question entirely.

Re: TD 412 - SenseiCAY's birthday Mini-TD (Q6 and final standings revealed)
And finally, we have Q6:
Q6. Food/Drink - Name one of the five mother sauces of classical French cuisine (5 answers; source: Michelin Guide, Auguste Escoffier).
Vinaigrette may have been considered a mother sauce in some circles at some point, and Bearnaise is a child of Hollandaise, but neither worked on this question.

My abysmal performance suggests that those things I think "No one is going to say that" are exactly the things that (almost) everyone does remember...and submit as their answer.
