About

This is a very traditional sauce for pudding. It has been forgotten during the past hundred years, but because the flavour is so good, and everyone I serve it to enjoys it; it really ought to be revived.

Method

Sack was a fortified wine; the flavour can be compared to sherry today. It was used a lot in cooking and also in puddings. You may also use Madeira or another sweet wine
