Ingredients
- 1 pint of melted butter
- 1/2 pint of melted butter
- a small wineglassful of rum
- 3 heaped teaspoonfuls of pounded sugar
- 1/2 lemon
- 7 persons
Directions
_Ingredients._—1 pint of melted butter, 3 heaped teaspoonfuls of pounded sugar; 1 _large_ wineglassful of port or sherry, or ¾ of a _small_ glassful of brandy. _Mode._—Make ½ pint of melted butter, omitting the salt; then stir in the sugar and wine or spirit in the above proportion, and bring the sauce to the point of boiling. Serve in a boat or tureen separately, and, if liked, pour a little of it over the pudding. To convert this into punch sauce, add to the sherry and brandy a small wineglassful of rum and the juice and grated rind of ½ lemon. Liqueurs, such as Maraschino or Curaçoa, substituted for the brandy, make excellent sauces. _Time._—Altogether, 15 minutes. _Average cost_, 8_d._ _Sufficient_ for 6 or 7 persons.
