About Bread sauce

Bread Sauce is a traditional British condiment, often served alongside roasted meats, particularly poultry like chicken or turkey. Made by simmering milk with aromatics such as onions, cloves, and bay leaves, the liquid is thickened with breadcrumbs to achieve a creamy yet textured consistency. Butter or cream may be added for richness, and seasoning such as salt, pepper, or nutmeg provides flavor depth. While Bread Sauce has historical roots in frugal home cooking, it offers a comforting, rustic addition to meals. Nutritionally, it contains calcium from the milk and some fiber from the breadcrumbs, though its high calorie and fat content, especially if butter or cream is included, makes it best enjoyed in moderation. Low-fat versions can be prepared for a lighter alternative, emphasizing its role as a flavorful rather than nutrient-dense side dish.
