    Title: Tomato Celery Sauce
    Categories: Sauces, Vegetarian
    Yield: 1 Batch

    1/2 lb Tomatoes
    3 White celery ribs; up to 4
    1 oz Butter
    Seasoning
    Carmine
    - (E120 red food coloring)
    1 c White sauce
    Salt
    Pepper
    Ground mace
    Lemon juice

    Slice the tomatoes and cut the celery into small pieces; melt the
    butter in a saucepan, put in the vegetables, season them with salt,
    pepper, a very little powdered mace, and let them simmer (not fry)
    for 10 minutes. Then add the white sauce and leave the pan where the
    heat is moderate until the vegetables are quite tender, but the sauce
    must not be allowed to boil. When it is ready, add a few drops of
    carmine and a squeeze of lemon-juice, and pass it either through a
    perforated gravy strainer or a sieve, and re-heat it carefully,
    letting it only just reach boiling point.
