Instructions

  1. In a bowl or mason jar with a lid, combine all of the ingredients and whisk or shake well until combined.
  2. Use immediately in a stir fry recipe, simmering it to thicken. Or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week before using. This recipe yields approximately 1 ¼ cup of sauce; you may want to start using half in your recipe and add more as desired. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Sour: to make it more sour, increase the rice vinegar to 1 tablespoon.
  • Sweet: to make it sweeter, add up to one additional tablespoon of sugar or honey.
  • Sugar: speaking of, brown sugar or granulated sugar work!
  • Thicker: to make the sauce extra thick, add up to 1 tablespoon additional corn starch. 
  • Play around with the ratios if you have a preference for a certain taste - it's super customizable!
