Teriyaki Sauce
Yield: 10 servings
This simple homemade Teriyaki Sauce recipe comes together in a snap, with common pantry ingredients. A versatile sauce with fabulous flavor!
Ingredients
- ½ cup soy sauce
- ¼ cup honey
- ¼ cup packed brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon finely grated fresh garlic (I use a microplane zester to finely grate)
- 1 tablespoon finely grated fresh ginger
- ¼ cup water
- 1½ tablespoons cornstarch
Instructions
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, sesame oil, rice vinegar, garlic, and ginger. Bring mixture just to a boil. Then decrease heat to keep mixture at a gentle simmer.
- In a small cup or bowl, stir together water and cornstarch to create a slurry.
- Then, while constantly whisking the soy sauce mixture, slowly pour the cornstarch slurry into the soy sauce mixture.
- Let the teriyaki sauce simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes or so. If the sauce is thicker than desired, add a little water to thin it out. Then remove saucepan from heat and let cool.
Notes
If you prefer a less-sweet teriyaki sauce, use half the amount of honey and brown sugar.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
