Sauce Making Tips



  • A little cornstarch and water go a long way to instantly thicken a sauce. Just add 1 tablespoon of cornstarch to 2 tbsp. of water (or pineapple juice) and mix. Stir it into simmering sauces for an instant thickener. Be careful to use just enough. Add the mixture SLOWLY.

  • Prepare sauce ahead of time and chill/freeze to blend flavors.

  • If brown or white sauce curdles, smoothen it out by whisking in 1-2 Tbsp. of hot water.
