White Sauce. (Mrs. G. Humphreys.)
This should be made quickly; it is very good when stock cannot be ready in time.
Mix together very smoothly ½ pt. of cream, ¼ teacupful of milk, ¼ lb. of butter, a little lemon peel and a little mace, about 2 tablespoonfuls of sherry or Madeira, not very sweet, a few drops of lemon juice, and sufficient flour to make it of a proper substance.
