FAQ
While sweet and sour can be found in diverse forms in China, the American version builds upon the simple mixture of sugar, vinegar, and spices with the addition of fruit juice—most commonly pineapple—and ketchup, giving the sauce both its red hue and uniquely Western flavor.
For most vegetables, however, I would recommend using honey to sweeten. Honey can improve the flavor of almost anything, and it's also good for you. You can cook them and add a bit of sugar or honey to the water. In fact, that's my preferred way to cook carrots.
Sometimes it is topped with pineapple, green pepper, carrot, or sweet pickles. Sweet and sour pork is a Chinese dish particularly popular in Westernised Cantonese cuisine and may be found worldwide.
