Brown Sauce Recipe 4 ingredients

• 1 cupful stock
• salt and pepper
• 2 tablespoonfuls butter
• 2 tablespoonfuls flour

To prepare this Brown Sauce Recipe 4, first cook the flour and butter together until brown, stirring briskly; then add the stock, a spoonful at a time, stirring or beating constantly to prevent it lumping. As soon as it has boiled strain, and serve with meat or vegetables. Used as a basis, with the addition of some ingredients from which the sauce takes its name, this may be the principal part of several meat or fish sauces. If not dark enough, add a little dark roux until it is the desired color.
