Put on to boil a pint of water with a little mace, black peppers whole, and some mustard seed; let it boil until the water is sharp; then strain off the water and put it on to boil with salt and some butter rubbed in flour; cut up some lobster, and dress it with this sauce.
MUSHROOM SAUCE.
Pick and wash some mushrooms; cut them up in a stew pan with pepper, salt and a little water and mace; let them stew twenty or thirty minutes; rub in very little flour and butter.
WINE SAUCE.
Beat up a piece of butter, then add the yolks of three eggs, and some sugar, wine and brandy; put this on the fire, stirring it all the time; as soon as it is boiling hot, take it off: this sauce is for puddings.
ANOTHER WINE SAUCE.
The quantity of the ingredients depends on the quantity of the article you make. Have equal quantities of wine and water, and a little brandy boiling hot, into which put some butter and sugar well beaten; season with nutmeg, and as soon as boiling hot take from the fire, and send to table.
CREAM SAUCE.
Sweeten to your taste some good sweet cream; season with nutmeg or rose water; this is good sauce for apple dumplings.
