[Sca-cooks] OP - roast beef accompaniment

"Brown mustard made up with clear vinegar/ is also good." (Thank you
GwenCat) this goes over well with Roast Beef in our house.

No, really, grind some brown mustard seed and add white wine vinegar.
YUM.

I also like the cinnamon mustard from  The Viandier of Taillevent (13th
century), translated by Terence Scully:
Take mustard, red wine, cinnamon powder and enough sugar, and let
everything steep together. It should be thick like cinnamon. It is good
for any roast.

But that won't work for you.

We discovered a cool sauce that my horseradish-reactive Dear One likes:
Nip'n'tang-- fruited horseradish sauce.

We like it so much we'll probably buy some at full price when our discount
store jars run out.
Sarah was resistant to the idea when I saw it in the discount store, but
after we tried it on pork, chicken and beef, she ended up taking the end
of one jar into work with her!
