This sauce has many uses; it is delectable between cake layers, as part of a summer trifle, a dessert sauce, in salad dressings, marinades, or my favorites, on salmon and waffles...separately :)
Prep Time: 20 minutes Yield: 2 cups
INGREDIENTS:
1 pound fresh or fresh frozen (thawed) pineapple
1 cup light brown sugar
1/4 pound (1 4 ounce stick) unsalted butter
1/3 cup rum (I love Mount Gay)
1 Tbsp lemon juice mixed into 1/2 cup half and half
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp cardamom
1 tsp vanilla
1 tbsp cornstarch whisked into
1 tbsp room temperature water
DIRECTIONS:
In medium saucepan, over low heat, stir together all ingredients except cornstarch mixture. Raise temperature to medium and let come to a gentle boil, stirring, for 8-10 minutes. Slightly lower heat, and whisk in the cornstarch mixture thoroughly, whisking for another minute. Remove from heat and let cool. Store in refrigerator for up to a week.
