How do you make a sauce smooth and glossy?
Sauces which use cornstarch as the primary thickener tend to have a more glossy appearance than those thickened with wheat flour. To ensure smoothness, dissolve the cornstarch in a small amount of cold water before adding it to the sauce. (Do not use hot liquid, as it will begin to cook the cornstarch and cause lumps in the finished sauce.) Stir or whisk the cornstarch solution into the sauce or gravy a little bit at a time, making sure that the liquid is thoroughly blended in after each addition. Continue to apply heat without boiling. Watch the sauce carefully to make sure it doesn't scorch, especially if the sauce contains sugar.Two tablespoons of cornstarch dissolved in two tablespoons of cold water should be enough to thicken a cup of liquid. You may use less, depending on how thick you want your finished sauce to be.
