JB it is a breath of fresh air to see that tomato is not used in the base and lemon is. As I said previously, this is more along the lines of what I have been told from my favourite restaurant.

The finished base looks quite thick, do you add more water or use as is? how does this base compare to other base recipes that you have tried?

I wonder whether that base sauce recipe is complete or will part 2 have any extra ingredients?

We'll have to wait until Jb gets back from work!
