Hi Guys,

Ok so basically I have been going through some books lately and I quite confused on this topic. Basically its about stocks and sauces, some chefs recommend that you cook them for a short period of time to not "lose" and of the freshness then I find recipes where sauce/stocks are cooked for hours. 

What is your opinion?

Ok, guys so after reading all your posts its clear that most of your stocks are 1hr+, so why do certain chefs (ex youtube, books) etc say that cooking sauce and stocks for a long time will ruin its freshness and lose its flavor? I must be confusing something.
