<<< I have never done
the meat with sauces thing because, for some unknown reason, it can be
difficult to get people in this area to try sauces.>>>
Provide several different sauces and let folks know which ones are each.
A few more period sauce recipes:
camelne-sauce-msg (26K) 8/22/04 Sauces w. cinnamon as a major
component.
garum-msg (78K) 2/24/08 Roman fish sauces made from
fermented fish.
Also includes comments on
liquamen.
(Probably not the thing for your dinners skittish of strange
sauces, though)
sauces-msg (172K) 2/14/08 Period sauces. Sauce recipes.
These are in the FOOD-CONDIMENTS section of the Florilegium.
<<< Then again, I once served a whole deep fried onion with a
Garlic/Walnut sauce that went over very well. >>>
Oh? Any evidence for deep fried onions of any style being period? I
wonder how that sauce would work with fried mushrooms. Okay, there
are also some horseradish sauces, I think, in this file in the
PLANTS, HERBS AND SPICES section:
horseradish-msg (60K) 7/13/06 Period use of horseradish. Recipes.
<<< To give a second option on sauces what would you recommend? Maybe a
mustard would be complementary? >>>
A green sauce or the garlic-walnut sauce you mention would make a
contrast. Or for mustards, I do have a few recipes.
Mustard-art (5K) 9/14/00 "Mustard" by Ld. Daniel le Vascon
du Navarre
Mustard-Making-art (36K) 12/ 7/03 "Making Medieval-Style Mustards"

Jadwiga Zajaczkowa.
mustard-msg (154K) 2/13/08 Mustard seed in period. sauces.
