KGT 92f.:  A number of different kinds of foods are mixed together, along with various flavorful herbs, and the concoction (called {Su'lop}) is fed to an animal. After just the right amount of time (a good cook knows from experience when this is), the animal is killed and its parts are used for various dishes, as would be expected. The stomach, however, still contains the now partially digested {Su'lop}, which is removed, used as a sauce (called {quD}), and served with great flourish. To prepare a sauce in this manner is described as {Su'lop Suqqa'} (literally, "reacquire {Su'lop}"), often shortened to just {Suqqa'}.
