2 Quick Tips to Thicken Honey Garlic Sauce
Here are quick and easy tips to thicken honey garlic sauce.
- Use cornflour/cornstarch to thicken the sauce. In the Chinese style, this method is recommended. To thick with cornflour, take 2 tsp of flour and mix with 1 Cup of water. Add in sauce and quickly stir to make a smooth and thick sauce.
- You can also thicken honey garlic sauce without cornstarch or cornflour. In my recipe, I didn't use it. I tried to make a thick sauce chicken just by combining vinegar, soya sauce, and honey. Simmer on low heat was the main technique that thickens the sauce..
