[Sca-cooks] Surviving medieval sauces?

[Wanda Pease]

A good time was had by all.  Moran and Laura did not succeed in keeping all the sauce.  Amazing how a sauce you didn't think of as going with Pork or beef went beautifully.  Chicken became a base to put more sauce on.

I life a fruity, peppery sauce which was rare. Glom!  Enough of Teriaki and Wostershire sauceI

Regina. Two days from her 67th birthday.  Ah the good old days!

Hail Mary Tudor, Queen of England!

Pepper sauces, garlic sauces, mustard sauce, horseradish, sauce Bob, Jance. One of them (I don't remember which) had long pepper in it, and Countess Morwyn and I were hiding it on our end of the table, keeping it to ourselves. Oh, it was powerful, and sooo good! Quite a kick after you think it's gone- the flames really open up your sinuses! It was even better after a few more days of mellowing.
