Quite possible. I can't say about the German? but we do have a few other examples. If I remember right, they are all late in period and most likely past the "medieval" period.  Of course if you've found some more, it would be nice to get those down.

In the FOOD-CONDIMENTS section of the Florilegium:
gravy-msg (14K) 2/14/08 Period gravy. Renaissance, not medieval.

(okay, Sorry no link, the Florilegium appears to be down right now).
