I have a redaction I picked up at an A&S University, but the translation says to use white corn meal, and the redaction uses 2 c. of burgundy wine in place of "a little must". I'd like to see how well done the redaction is in the recipe i have.

I won't swear as to how good the translation is...

Platina: On Right Pleasure and Good Health

8.14  Red Mustard Sauce

Grind in mortar or mill, either separately or all together, mustard, raisins, dates, toasted bits of bread, and a little cinnamon.  When it is ground, soak with verjuice or vinegar and a bit of must, and pass through a sieve into serving dishes.  This heats less than the one above (8.13 Prepared Mustard/ Sinapidum) and stimulates thirst but does not nourish badly.




Enjoy,
