The book gives 1 spoon of olive oil, 2 glasses of wine and 1 spoon of lemon juice; the other amounts are ours.

Method

5 soļi
  1. For salted anchovies: soak them for 20–30 minutes and pull out the bones. Oil-packed fillets only need draining.
  2. Mash the anchovies with the butter to a paste, with a fork or in a mortar.
  3. Put the paste in a saucepan with the ham, shallots, olive oil and broth. Simmer gently for 15–20 minutes, until the shallots are soft.
  4. Pour through a fine sieve, pressing hard to push through as much as possible. Return to the pan.
  5. Add the wine, lemon juice and mushrooms and simmer for 10 minutes, until slightly reduced. Taste; it shouldn't need salt.

Notes

What the book says vs. what we added

the book pounds soaked, boned anchovies very fine with butter, adds chopped lean ham, finely chopped shallots, a spoon of "white" olive oil and a little broth, boils it well, strains it through a horsehair sieve, adds 2 glasses of wine, a spoon of lemon juice and preserved mushrooms and boils it again. We read a glass as about 125 ml; the times are ours.

The name

Spānera sula is "the Spaniard's sauce", from German Spanier. With ham, wine and broth it looks like the lighter "Spanish" sauces of 18th-century French cooking, not the thick brown espagnole of later French kitchens.

Olive oil

the book's bomeļe is olive oil (German Baumöl); in 03-007 it glosses it as Provence oil. "White" probably means a pale, mild oil.

Mushrooms

ietaisītas briedenes are preserved field mushrooms (briedenes, see 02-076). Rinsed pickled button mushrooms are the nearest; or fry 100 g sliced fresh mushrooms in a little butter.

Serving

the book says it is good with reheated roasts and other braised meat dishes. Slice leftover roast beef, veal or lamb, warm it gently in the sauce and serve.
