The uniqueness of this recipe really intrigued us. We made it exactly as directed but with seasoned bread crumbs for added flavor. We used it as a dipping sauce for chicken nuggets. This is a nice creamy sauce and the nutmeg and cloves add a nice flavor, but we felt it still a bit bland and needed 'something' to add zing to it. Overall, we liked this recipe. :)
