SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE

This recipe has been a favorite for decades.  It came from Favorite Mormon Recipes: Meat, published in the 1970's or 1980's.  

Combine in saucepan and boil 10 minutes:

     1 cup cider vinegar

     2 cups water

     2 ½ cups sugar

     1 cup ketchup

     ½ cup pineapple juice

     1 slice lemon or ½ tsp. lemon juice

     ¼ tsp. Salt

Mix together:

     ¼ cup water

     2 Tbsp. cornstarch

Add cornstarch mixture to saucepan, mix thoroughly, and cook a few minutes.

Remove from heat; sauce will thicken.

This sauce is delicious on egg rolls, for sweet and sour chicken, etc.

Sauce will keep in the refrigerator indefinitely.
