A sweet and tangy sauce perfect for dipping, drizzling and dunking your favorite bites.


Ingredients

1 tbsp cornstarch
¼ cup water
½ cup cider vinegar
½ cup light brown sugar packed
¼ cup ketchup
1 tbsp soy sauce


Instructions

Place all ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Whisk to combine.
As it starts heating up, keep whisking constantly until it thickens into a sauce consistency. It will thicken as it cools. Adjust sweet with sugar, tang with vinegar, saltiness with salt to taste.


Notes
Store for a week in an airtight container. You may need to add a touch of cider vinegar after a few days as the tanginess does fade.
Serving size 1 tablespoon.
