DAMSON SAUCE FOR MEATS. This sauce is a good substitute for currant-jelly when required for game, birds, and venison. To prepare it, wash and put in a preserve-kettle seven pounds of damson plums, one pint of vinegar, and three pounds and a half of brown sugar, and let them heat slowly, and boil gently until the skins begin to burst ; then at once skim the plums from the sirup ; put into it four inches of stick-cinnamon, a teaspoonful of whole cloves, and two blades of mace

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
