Ingredients:

6 lemons
60g fresh horseradish
450g salt
6 garlic cloves
7g ground cloves
7g ground nutmeg
7g ground mace
7g cayenne pepper
60g powdered English mustard
1.8l malt vinegar

Method:

First cut the lemons into eight portions, place in the bottom of a large jar and cover with the salt. Now grate the horseradish finely and add this along with the remaining ingredients in the jar. Place this jar in a large saucepan and cover with water to about 5cm from the lid. Bring the water to the boil and keep boiling for 15 minutes. Allow to cool a little, secure the lid on the jar and put aside for six weeks.

Once a day stir the contents of the jar and replace the lid. At the end of the six weeks pour the contents of the jar through a sieve into a number of small bottles. Stopper these tightly (they will last for several years). Use the sauce with cold game such as venison or pheasant. This is a powerful sauce and a little will go a long way.
