Combine Ingredients: In a saucepan over medium heat, add the chopped pineapple, 1/2 cup water, vinegar, honey, soy sauce, ginger, and garlic. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Simmer: Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes, or until the pineapple is tender.
Thicken Sauce: In a small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry. Stir this slurry into the simmering sauce.
Season: Add the chili flakes and salt to the sauce. Continue to simmer for another 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your liking.
Cool: Remove the sauce from heat and allow it to cool. The sauce will thicken further as it cools.
