At least for roast meats, a sauce was often added to a dish NOT prior
to serving, but by the diners themselves. Sorta like ketchup in a
modern restaurant. (Katerine, can you confirm this for me?)
It can work very nicely to serve a single big hunk of meat with three
or four different sauces on the side: it allows the diners to try a
couple of different flavors, and takes less work than preparing four
different dishes.
