A savory and sweet traditional teriyaki sauce that perfectly balances flavors to enhance your dishes. Made with simple pantry staples, this sauce is ideal for glazing meats, marinating, or as a dipping sauce.
Teriyaki sauce originates from Japan, traditionally used to glaze and marinate meats. This version captures the essence of classic Japanese flavors with a simple preparation.
1. In a medium saucepan, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, mirin, and sake over medium heat.
2. Stir in honey, minced ginger, and minced garlic, allowing the mixture to come to a gentle simmer.
3. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with water until smooth, then slowly pour into the saucepan, stirring constantly.
4. Continue to simmer until the sauce thickens to desired consistency, about 5-7 minutes.
5. Remove from heat and let cool before using or storing.
Store the teriyaki sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Reheat gently in a saucepan over low heat or in the microwave, stirring occasionally until warmed through.
