How to Make Sweet And Hot Garlic Sauce
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup water, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 4 cloves garlic (minced), and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens to a syrupy consistency (about 15-20 minutes).
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in 1-2 tablespoons of your favorite chili sauce (adjust to your desired spice level). Mix thoroughly.
- The sauce will naturally turn a beautiful amber-orange color as it cools.
- Allow the sauce to cool completely to room temperature before transferring it to an airtight jar. Refrigerate for up to three weeks.
- When ready to use, gently heat a small amount of the sauce until it reaches your desired consistency. It will thin slightly as it warms.
