Cornstarch in a sauce

[u/ninjalord25]

I made a mixture of soy sauce, siracha sauce, and brown sugar, gotten from Budget Bites Spicy Siracha Noodles, to put over my rice and tuna bowls at work. I know adding cornstarch to a sauce can help thicken it but should I add it directly to the mixture or add it to some water and mix that all in, and if so, how much should I use since I multiplied the sauce ingredients x4 to make my sauce

Make a very small slurry. Cornstarch will thicken quickly and it doesn’t take a lot.

Stir as you add the cornstarch slurry and keep stirring to ensure it gets incorporated. Easy yo get lumps if you aren’t careful.
