Yes, that's the way how these sauces were cooked in my family. I still make them that way how my Oma made them when I was a child.

Tomato Sauce (Paradicsommartas) This is a cooked creamy tomato sauce that is not at all like a spaghetti sauce. This tomato sauce is traditionally served over boiled beef and vegetables, after having consumed the beef soup. It is also traditionally served over boiled chicken, after having consumed the chicken soup.  Mother always served her sauce in a bowl and we put dollops of it on our plates and would dip our meat in it.  I was so pleased when we visited our relatives now living in Kandel . . . I didn't have my mother's recipe but this tasted just like it! 1½ tablespoons soft butter 1½ tablespoons flour 1 cup of water or stock 1 heaping tablespoons tomato paste ½ teaspoon sugar c teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons vinegar Melt the butter in a saucepan. Sprinkle the flour over the butter, stir and cook until the mixture foams up. Do not let it brown. Stir in the tomato paste, water or stock and cook stirring so no lumps form. When thickened, stir in sugar, and salt. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. If you like more "bite" you can add 1 teaspoon of vinegar. Makes over 1 cup of sauce. Recipe can be doubled or tripled if more is needed. Serve hot over boiled beef and vegetables in Hungarian Beef Soup or serve separately for a dipping sauce for the meat. The same sauce is used in the Hungarian Chicken Soup. There, too, the broth is first served with cooked noodles or knadels and then the meat is served with the vegetables and sauce. Sour Cream-Horseradish Sauce 2 cups of sour cream 4 tablespoons prepared grated horse-radish 2 teaspoons sugar ½ teaspoon salt Mix together in small sauce bowl. Add more horse-radish if you like it stronger, more sour cream and sugar if you like it milder. Serve at room temperature Yield: 2 cups. Dill Sauce 1½ tablespoons soft butter 1½ tablespoons flour 1 cup of milk or water or stock 1½ teaspoons good vinegar ½ teaspoon sugar 1 teaspoon fresh dill chopped 1/8 teaspoon salt Melt the butter in a saucepan. Sprinkle the flour over the butter; stir and cook until the mixture foams up. Do not let it brown. Stir in the milk, water or stock and cook stirring so no lumps form. When thickened, stir in vinegar, sugar, fresh dill and salt. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Yield: 1 cup Note: This recipe can be doubled or tripled if more is needed. -----Original Message----- From: Eve Sent: Wednesday, April 23, 2014 9:14 AM To: Anne Dreer Cc: donauschwaben-villages@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [DVHH] Paradeis Soss What was the liquid used for this roux Anne?  Was it tomato juice by chance?
