Note

Storage: Store leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave.

Substitutions: If you don't have arrowroot, you can use cornstarch as a thickener. Mix it with cold water in the same ratio.

Variations: Add a splash of lime juice or a pinch of cayenne pepper for extra zest or heat.

Tip: For a smoother texture, blend the sauce with an immersion blender after simmering.
