 water 

33/50 c
 vinegar, white 

1 1/2 c
 sugar, granulated 

1 cn
6 oz tomato paste 

1 c
reserve juice pineapple tibits 

3 T
 corn starch 

2 T
 soy sauce (optional)

            

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, mix together water, distilled white vinegar, white sugar, tomato paste, and pineapple tidbits.

Cook, stirring occasionally, 15 minutes to 20 minutes. 

Mix cornstarch with a little water or pineapple juice until no lumps and then stir into sauce.  Bring to a full boil, stirring consistently, then lower heat.

Gently simmer, stirring occasionally, until mixture reaches desired color and consistency.

If you don't like pineapple pieces, feel free to strain them out!
