Basic Chinese Sweet And Sour Sauce Food
BASIC CHINESE SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE
This recipe comes from a 1965 cookbook my Dad gave me 42 years ago. I still use it all the time. I'm putting it on here because the pages are getting hard to read. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do.

CHINESE SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Mix the potato starch with 1 tablespoon of water (or a little more, as needed) to make a slurry.
- Add all of the ingredients to a saucepan and mix evenly before you start cooking.
- You must continuously stir the sauce to prevent the sauce from getting lumpy.
- Bring the sauce to a boil and turn the heat to the lowest temperature and simmer until the sauce texture has turned thick and sticky. Then it's ready.
- You can stir fry some pork or chicken with vegetables and pour the sauce in.
- If you have any extra sauce, you can keep it in a dry and clean container after it is cooled down and store it in the fridge. Usually, this sauce should last 7 to 10 days in the fridge.

SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE
I love the pinkish red sweet and sour sauce that is served in Chinese restaurants...I have tried dozens of recipes and been disappointed so I made this one by trial and error...this is the closest I have come to getting that flavor.

SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE
This recipe is one that I was given by my mother and have used for years. She found it in an old chinese cookbook and I have never found it since. I made a couple of changes to the original recipe, but basically it is the same one my mother has used for years for her sweet and sour pork. Serve with tempura chicken or pork as a main dish or egg rolls or crab rangoon as a dip. *Of note, the sauce is not your typical red color, it is brownish. The first time I made this, my husband and I were only married a few months and he asked "why isn't this red?" Ever since then, I add a few drops of red food coloring to bring it that red color one usually expects with sweet and sour sauce, you can omit this if you like.

- After, put ¾ cup of brown sugar, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of vinegar, 3 tablespoons of ketchup, ¼ teaspoon of salt. Stir and mix it well.
- In a small container, add 2 tablespoons of cornstarch, 2 tablespoons of water and mix it well. (For dipping sauce, I like to use 2 tablespoons of cornstarch. However, when I make a sweet and sour pork dish, I like the sauce thicker. Therefore, I use 3 tablespoons of cornstarch to thicken the sauce.)
