Found recipes

I, while cleaning up the computer stand  waiting for the repairman to do his thing, found some sauce recipes that are much cheaper than purchased sauce.  Sometimes a sauce makes the difference between  something is really good, or ho hum.

Teriyaki Sauce

4-1/2 tsp cornstarch
1 T brown sugar
2 cups beef or chicken broth
2 T soy sauce
2 tsp minced garlic
1/4 tap ginger
Red pepper flakes



Sweet and sour sauce

4 tsp cornstarch
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ginger
Dash pepper

1 can pineapple chunks
1/4 cup vinegar

In a small bowl, combine first four ingredients. Drain pineapple, reserving juice.  Stir juice and vinegar into cornstarch mixture, stirring until smooth.  Stir into pan juices after cooking the meat of choice.


Microwave cheese sauce

In a micro safe bowl, melt 30-40 seconds
2 T butter

Stir on 3 T flour, salt and peppers till smooth paste.

Gradually add 1-1/2 cups milk
Cook 1-1/2  to 2 minutes until thick and bubbly, storing after 1 minute.

Stir in 1/2 cup grated cheese until cheese is melted.


Thanks for stopping by

Please share
