Categories     Sauces

Time 15m

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup ketchup
1 teaspoon regular soy sauce
1/3 cup white vinegar
1/2 cup brown sugar, lightly packed
1 cup white sugar (can reduce a 2-3 tablespoons for a less sweeter taste)
3/4 cup cold water (or can use unsweetened pineapple juice or half each, I prefer the pineapple juice)
3 tablespoons cornstarch (for a thinner sauce reduce to 2 tablespoons, if you want an very thick sauce use 4 tablespoons)

Steps:

  • In a saucepan combine the first 5 ingredients until combined.
  • In a cup or bowl whisk the cold water with cornstarch or pineapple juice until smooth and combined, then whisk in ketchup mixture; bring to a boil stirring or whisking constantly over medium-high heat until bubbly and thickened (the sauce will continue to thicken more while simmering).
  • Cool slightly and use immediately or refrigerate.

I'm not a fan of the ketchup in this recipe. I think it overpowers the other flavors.

This sauce is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I'm sure I can adjust the ingredients to make it more to my liking.

I'm allergic to pineapple, so I substituted crushed peaches in the sauce. It turned out great!

This recipe is a great starting point, but I added a few extra ingredients to give it a more unique flavor.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce turned out more sour than sweet.
