Sue Lau's Note:

Use this tasty sauce as a dip for egg rolls, crab rangoon, spring rolls...most crispy Asian appetizers will go well with this.

i really enjoyed this sauce. i had only pinapple & apricot preserves on hand but it still tasted great! i used it as a dipping sauce for eggrolls and i also put it over turkey meatballs and rice. this is the best homemade sweet and sour sauce i have ever tried and it was really easy and fast to make. thank you!

This was a good S&S recipe. I alwayse run the pineapple preservs through my food processor so the sauce is smooth (my kids eat it better that way). I add a tablespoon or two of sugar because my family likes their S&S more sweet than sour.
