Sensei's Japanese Sweet & Sour Sauce

I like this a lot better than those recipes that call for pineapple juice. I got it from my Japanese Sensei at school. It's very nummy-yummy.

1 (about) cup of sauce (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Mix vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, salt, water, garlic, and ginger in small sauce pan.
  2. 2
    Heat on stove, use cornstarch to thicken if you want it thick.
  3. 3
    If you want to stir-fry with it, you don't have to add the cornstarch and thicken it up.
  4. 4
    If you do thicken it, you can use it as a dipping sauce.

Really great — I served this with panko chicken-- sort of reminds me of ponzu sauce--but better. Thanks for the great recipe!

    Great tasting sauce. Thickened it to use with eggrolls. I will certainly make again. Thanks for sharing this simple to make sauce.

    This made a great stir-fry sauce for noodles. I made a couple of changes to the recipe, substituting Chinese cooking wine for the vinegar and not thickening the sauce with cornstarch as it was being stir-fried with. I also used fresh garlic and added some finely sliced red chilli. Very tasty!
