Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Honey
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
Directions
Step 1
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, apple cider vinegar, low-sodium soy sauce, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, and ground black pepper until smooth.
Step 2
In a separate small bowl, combine the water and cornstarch to make a slurry. Stir until the cornstarch is fully dissolved.
Step 3
Transfer the honey mixture to a small saucepan and heat over medium-low heat.
Step 4
Once the honey mixture begins to simmer lightly, stir in the cornstarch slurry slowly while continuously whisking to avoid lumps.
Step 5
Allow the sauce to cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until it thickens to your desired consistency. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a teaspoon of water at a time to thin it out.
Step 6
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the sauce cool slightly before serving. It can be served warm or at room temperature.
Step 7
Store leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Reheat gently before using, if needed.
