Recently the gentle preparing the feast for Kingdom Dance & Music
Symposium held a mock feast. Within the first remove was a dish of
meatballs in Saracen Sauce. The meatballs were lamb while the
sauce is red. The cook used a food dye as called for in "Fabulous
Feasts". We were discussing the possibility of getting the same
coloring without substantially changing the taste of the dish by
using a period food-dye.
We discussed using beet juice, but that would change the taste.
Any suggestions? Any references to a Saracen Sauce from a period
source?
