Ingredients
- 1.2 cup sugar
- 2.1.5 cup water
- 3.2 cloves, whole
- 4.3 tablespoon brandy
- 5.0.5 cup van der Hum liqueur
Method
- 1.[Method not written on card — interpreted as: dissolve sugar in water with cloves over gentle heat, simmer 5 minutes, remove cloves, cool, stir in brandy and van der Hum.]
Notes
- Only the ingredients are listed on the card — no method was written. Likely a simple sugar syrup: dissolve sugar in water with cloves, simmer briefly, remove cloves, cool, and stir in brandy and van der Hum.
- Van der Hum is a South African orange-flavoured liqueur made from naartjie (tangerine) peel.
- This sauce appears on the same page as Oranges Oriental and may be intended as an accompaniment to that dish.
