1/2 c. sugar
1 tsp. cornstarch (if thicker sauce is desired, add another tsp.)
Pinch of salt
1 c. boiling water
1/4 c. lemon juice
1 tbsp. grated lemon rind (for sweeter sauce use 3 tbsp. lemon juice & 1 tsp. grated lemon rind)
1 tbsp. butter

In small saucepan, combine sugar, cornstarch and salt. Gradually blend in water and lemon juice. Cook, stirring constantly until slightly thickened.

Remove from heat; stir in lemon rind and butter. Make 1 1/2 cups. This sauce is good over angel food cake, pound cake or fresh poached fruits.
