Sunflower oil is almost always used. Skordalia is a thick puree (or sauce, dip, spread, etc.) in Greek cuisine made by combining crushed garlic with a bulky base—which may be a purée of potatoes, walnuts, almonds, or liquid-soaked stale bread—and then beating in olive oil to make a smooth emulsion. Vinegar is often added. Ta'leya is a garlic sauce in Egyptian cuisine made by frying garlic and adding vinegar and spices.
Suprême sauce Suprême sauce "Suprême" sauce is one of the classic "small sauces" of French cuisine, that is, one made by combining a basic or mother sauce with extra ingredients. Traditionally, this sauce is made from a "velouté" sauce (a roux sauce made with a meat stock - in the case of "suprême", a chicken stock is usually preferred), reduced with heavy cream or "crème fraîche", and then strained through a fine sieve. This is the recipe as used in "Larousse Gastronomique", a seminal work of French "haute cuisine", first published in 1938. A light squeeze of lemon juice is commonly added.
