Directions
"Sauce Gauncile" from "Two Fifteenth-century Cookery Books" "Thicken the milk with the flour and butter and cook, stirring, until creamy. Squeeze the garlic into the milk through a garlic press and season with salt and pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes and spoon over the carved pieces of the bird.
"The addition of a pinch of saffron transforms this into another medieval sauce called 'gauncile', which was served with boiled or roast pork."
