Ouverture, 1604, has ten specific sauces which include cinnamon.

- for roasted cow's udder.
- for a veal subtlety.
- for dogfish pasties.
- for roasted sturgeon.
- for roasted dogfish.
- for tuna.
- for leg of mutton subtlety.
- for roasted calf's liver.
- for a veal subtlety.
- for duck.

I have not analyzed how many of these might reasonably be considered
to be versions of Cameline.


I hadn't previously realized quite how much cinnamon Casteau must
have used.  In 194 recipes the word 'cinnamon' appears 102 times!
