From an old book: a historical recipe, not current advice. Its methods, additives and storage may be unsafe by today's standards.

Ingredients 4 ingredients

  1. 2 tablespoons of white wine
  2. 1 teaspoon of onion juice
  3. 1 1/2 teaspoons of mustard mixed
  4. 2 teaspoons tarragon vinegar

Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Boiling water and steam. Turn pan handles inward, away from the edge of the hob. Lift lids away from you, and pour hot water away from your body: steam burns too.

Method

  1. This is made by adding to 1 cup of Spanish sauce 2 tablespoons of white wine, 1 teaspoon of onion juice, and 1 1/2 teaspoons of mustard mixed with 2 teaspoons tarragon vinegar.
  2. Season, and make hot in a double boiler, letting all cook slowly together ten minutes.
