Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon whole allspice
  • 3/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons water, divided
  • 1/2 cup white vinegar

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 teaspoons ground mustard

Gradually whisk in vinegar mixture. Add spice bag. Simmer over medium heat until thickened, 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
