Sweet and Sour Sauce

  

Ingredients 

1 cup canned pineapple juice, see note

3/4 cup packed light brown sugar

OR Brown sugar alternative (for low sugar option)

1/3 cup rice vinegar, found in the Asian or general vinegar section of any grocery store, or you can substitute apple cider vinegar

3 tbsp ketchup

2 tbsp soy sauce or tamiri

For the Cornstarch Slurry:  

1 1/2 tbsp cornstarch dissolved in 2 tbsp water

Instructions Place all of the ingredients, except for the cornstarch slurry, in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Stir in the cornstarch slurry and simmer for another minute until thickened, stirring constantly. If using red food coloring, stir it in. Let the sauce cool completely and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator where it will keep for 2-3 weeks. 

Notes

* Freshly squeezed pineapple juice contains enzymes that will break down the cornstarch and prevent the sauce from remaining thick, so either use canned or bottled

Turn Canned Pineapple to Pineapple Syrup

We don’t always throw out the pineapple juice leftover from canned pineapple, instead we usually drink it. However, it can be used in other ways as well. The juice is not only a refreshing addition to drinks, syrup, marinades or water, it is also an excellent substitute for liquids that appear in recipes for muffins, ice cream, and fruit salad. This syrup is recommended to be put on almost any sweet dessert because it contains small pieces of pineapple and also because it is simple and wonderful and adds a rich flavor.

Ingredients: 

Canned pineapple - 1 cup (juice only) 

Cornstarch - 4 tbsp.

Preparation:

Before preparing, it is recommended to place the liquid in the fridge for several hours. 

 

This will make it easier to mix it with cornstarch later on. 

 

Add about 4 tablespoons of cornstarch (56 g) to each cup of pineapple juice. 

 

Mix and boil in a pot over medium to high heat until it thickens. 

 

The prepared syrup should be cooled for several hours and drizzled over ice cream, cakes, pudding or pancakes.
