Ingredients:
- 1 cup crushed pineapple
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 green pepper
- 1/4 cup pimiento
- 1/2 clove garlic
- 1/2 cup cider vinegar
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 10 drops Tabasco sauce
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/4 cup water
Instructions:
- Begin by gathering your ingredients and ensuring you have a 1-quart glass or enamel saucepan ready.
- In the saucepan, combine the crushed pineapple, sugar, diced green pepper, sliced pimiento, minced garlic, cider vinegar, 1/4 cup of water, soy sauce, and Tabasco sauce.
- Mix the ingredients well, and then heat the mixture slowly over medium heat for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Once heated, remove the clove of garlic from the saucepan, ensuring its flavor has infused the sauce.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and the remaining 1/4 cup of water until smooth, creating a slurry.
- Gradually pour the cornstarch slurry into the hot sauce mixture, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming.
- Continue to cook the sauce over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens and becomes clear, which should take approximately 5 minutes of boiling.
- Once the sauce has reached the desired consistency, remove it from the heat.
