Ingredients
1 cup unsweetened apple juice
1 tablespoon soy sauce (or more to taste)
1 tablespoon rice vinegar or cider vinegar
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger root
1 to 2 teaspoons sugar (optional)
1 tablespoon cornstarch dissolved in 1 tablespoon cold water
Preparation
In a small non-reactive saucepan, combine the apple juice, soy sauce, vinegar, ginger, and the sugar, if using, and bring to a boil. Stir the dissolved cornstarch into the boiling sauce. Reduce the heat and stir for about 1 minute, until the sauce thickens and becomes clear. Serve hot.
