Shirley's Sweet and Sour Sauce

Pineapple Sweet and Sour Sauce

 

This wonderful Sweet and Sour Pineapple sauce recipe from Elder Shirley Gong at the Port Alberni Adventist Church does not have some of the less attractive ingredients of commercial sauces (for example, no food coloring).  Use it as a sauce alternative for the Veggies and Pan Noodles, also a recipe of Shirley's.
