Answer
# Brief Explanations:
1. Base sauces are the starting - point for other sauces. Compound sauces are made from base sauces. So the statement "Compound sauces are the base sauces from which other sauces can quickly be made" is false. It should be "Base sauces are the base sauces from which other sauces can quickly be made".
2. The five mother sauces in classic French cuisine are béchamel, velouté, brown (espagnole), hollandaise, and tomato. So the statement is true.
3. Mornay sauce is made by adding cheese to béchamel sauce, not velouté. So the statement is false. It should be "Mornay sauce is a béchamel sauce derivative".
4. Béarnaise sauce is made by adding tarragon and other herbs to hollandaise sauce. So the statement is true.
5. Jus lié, espagnole, and demi - glace are indeed versions of brown sauce. So the statement is true.
6. White sauce (béchamel) is made by thickening milk with a white roux and can be flavored with onion, bay leaf, and a small amount of nutmeg. So the statement is true.
7. Hollandaise sauce is a hot emulsified sauce made from egg yolks and warm, clarified butter. So the statement is true.
