Recipe Notes
Change it Up:
For a slightly thicker sauce/glaze, mix together 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water to form a runny cornstarch paste.
After straining the sauce, return sauce to pan, add cornstarch mixture, and bring to a low boil for approximately 3 minutes, stirring frequently.
