"Makes a beautiful presentation garnished with orange segments. The original recipe called for 1/4 cup of caraway seeds, which sounded like a LOT for this sauce. Please feel free to add more caraway seeds, if desired. From the Michigan Dutch chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947."
