- Place all the ingredients (except for the water and cornstarch mixture) in a pan and bring the mixture to a boil.
- Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes or until the mixture has reduced by half. (Keep in mind that the vinegar will darken. Generally, rice vinegar has a milder flavor than other vinegars.)
- Reduce the heat to low and add the cornstarch-water mixture. Stir while adding it, and continue stirring until the sauce thickens (about 2 minutes).
- Remove it from the heat and taste it. It should have a sweet flavor initially, followed by a sour taste, then a bit of spiciness, and salty notes. If the sauce is not sweet enough, add a little more sugar. And if it’s not spicy enough, add a little more chili.
- Pour the sauce into a suitable container and serve it as a dip for chicken, fish, seafood, or as a dipping sauce for items like chicken wings, spring rolls, or shrimp. It is also an excellent sauce for marinating chicken for the barbecue, fish, or seafood.
