    SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE
    1/3 cup white or rice vinegar (Note: rice vinegar gives better results)
    4 tablespoons brown sugar
    1 tablespoon ketchup
    1 teaspoon soy sauce
    2 teaspoons cornstarch mixed with 4 teaspoons water

    Mix the vinegar, brown sugar, ketchup, and soy sauce together and bring to a boil in a small pot. Mix together the cornstarch and water, add to the other ingredients and stir to thicken.

    SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE
    1/2 cup pineapple juice
    1 tablespoon rice vinegar
    3 tablespoons brown sugar
    1 tablespoon ketchup
    1 teaspoon soy sauce
    2 teaspoons cornstarch added to the pineapple juice

    Mix the pineapple juice with cornstarch, add brown sugar, ketchup, vinegar and soy sauce together allow to come to a simmer. This will thicken up, keep stirring. The pineapple juice makes it sweet and tangy. You can use the juice from a can of pineapple if you are adding the pineapple to your "dish".
