Ingredients
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 cup vinegar
Directions
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water before beginning.
In a small saucepan, whisk together the sugar and cornstarch until well combined and no lumps remain.
Gradually pour the vinegar into the sugar mixture, stirring constantly to create a smooth, lump-free paste.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring frequently. Continue cooking for 2 to 3 minutes until the mixture becomes translucent and thickens slightly.
Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 15 minutes until fully chilled.
Transfer the cooled dressing to a serving container and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
