Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup pineapple juice (unsweetened)
- 0.5 cup peach preserves
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1.5 teaspoons sriracha
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger (grated)
- 1 clove garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon water
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine pineapple juice, peach preserves, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, sriracha, grated ginger, and minced garlic.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and whisk the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and the sugar has dissolved.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry.
Slowly whisk the cornstarch slurry into the saucepan to thicken the glaze.
Bring the glaze to a gentle simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the glaze thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the glaze cool for a few minutes before using.
Brush the spicy fruit glaze over grilled meats, vegetables, or tofu during the final minutes of grilling to allow it to caramelize slightly.
Leftover glaze can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to one week.
