Dutch Sauce. No. 5. Brown. (Mr. Talon.)
For pike, cod, or stuffed and baked haddock.
Make a roux of 2 ozs. butter to a tablespoonful of flour, and fry to a brown roux in a stewpan.
Slice an onion into another stewpan, and let it brown with a little butter, then add it to the roux.
Next melt a piece of glaze, the size of half an egg, in ½ pt. brown stock to make a good thick sauce; add to it the roux and onion, a flavour with a sprig of parsley, a sprig of watercress, a little celery, rather less than ½ oz. of lean bacon, and a wine-glassful of sherry.
