Teal, Sauce For

Take a small onion and a shallot chopped fine, four or five leaves of sweet basil, and the peel of a lemon shredded small, and put these into half a pint of stock. Let this boil five minutes, strain, and add a salt-spoonful of salt, half that quantity of cayenne, a few drops of vinegar, the juice of a lemon, and a glass of port wine. Serve very hot.
