This dipping sauce simmers pineapple juice, sugar, and vinegar into a glossy, tangy glaze thickened with cornstarch. It pairs well with fried appetizers like egg rolls and spring rolls, or as a glaze for grilled chicken and shrimp skewers.

Ingredients

  • 1 cups pineapple juice
  • 1/2 cups crushed pineapple, drained
  • 1/3 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1/4 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 garlic clove, minced

Method

  1. In a small saucepan, whisk together the pineapple juice, crushed pineapple, sugar, rice vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, and red pepper flakes.

  2. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, and cook for 3 minutes to soften the pineapple and dissolve the sugar.

  3. In a small bowl, whisk the cornstarch and water together until smooth to form a slurry.

  4. Whisk the cornstarch slurry into the simmering sauce and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened and glossy, about 2 minutes.

  5. Remove the sauce from the heat and let it cool to room temperature; it will continue to thicken slightly as it cools.

  6. Transfer the sauce to a jar or serving bowl and serve at room temperature or chilled.
