A jus is a reduction of a sauce. I am guessing. I don't know any of the proper words inb cooking. I need a dictionary to read delia.

I always thought it was the opposite way round, jus is thinner than sauce and not thickened with things like flour or cornflour.

“Jus: Pan juices that occur during roasting. Traditionally a jus is never thickened with flour but by reduction. (A jus thickened with flour is a gravy)”
so reduced by not with a thickening agent.

A jus is made from the juices of the meat. A sauce can be made from anything.
