Here is a sweet citrus dip that my mom always makes for fruit salad; it's pretty amazing, and easy! Just trust me :)
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup water
pinch of salt
1 tablespoon corn starch
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons pineapple juice
1 tablespoon orange juice
2 egg yolks (not the whole egg - you must separate the yolks!!)
combine all of this in a small saucepan and stir it up so it all dissolves, then turn on the burner to high heat. It is very important that you stir the whole time (otherwise the sugar will burn). The minute you notice the mixture boil and start to thicken, remove it from heat and continue to stir until it congeals. Now pour it out into a bowl and allow to cool a few minutes. And there you have a good, refreshing dip for your fruit salad!! It tastes amazing with strawberries, grapes, and especially pineapple! And if it cools too much and gets too thick, just put it in the microwave for 15 seconds and stir it up! This is a perfect appetizer idea for summer! We made it for Easter and it was quite a hit :)
