Instructions

  1. Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan to form a sauce. (Mix cornstarch with a little cold water to dissolve it before adding to saucepan.)
  2. Heat sauce to a simmer, constantly stirring until the mixture thickens.
  3. Transfer sauce mixture to a storage container, let cool, and refrigerate.
Notes:
  • This sauce may be refrigerated for up to five days, or if you prefer, the sauce may be frozen and defrosted for later use. Although the sauce is freeze-thaw stable, after the sauce has been frozen and defrosted, it may need to be stirred to reincorporate the small amount of moisture that forms on the sauce during the freezing and thawing process.
