Wow-Wow Sauce is a sauce apparently created by Dr William Kitchiner in the early 19th century. It contains port, wine vinegar, pickled cucumbers or pickled walnuts, English mustard and mushroom ketchup in a base of beef stock, flour and butter. A recipe appears in Enquire Within Upon Everything (88th edition, 1894) [1]
It is also the name of a parody of this sauce in the Discworld novels of Terry Pratchett. See Flora and fauna of the Discworld. A variant of the above real-world recipe is in the Discworld Companion and Nanny Ogg's Cookbook.
