A better definition would be that, for example, if a manuscript says that
roast beef was served with a sauce that the recipe is given for and a cook
serves the roast beef without the sauce then it is not documentable as having
been served. If a mustard sauce recipe says that it is to be served with
roast beef and then the roast beef is served without the sauce, it's service
is mere supposition and no proof exists that it was ever served without the
required sauce.
