Ingredients
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 teaspoons cold water
Instructions
- In a small pot, add soy sauce, water, brown sugar, rice vinegar, honey, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil.
- Combine cold water and cornstarch in a small bowl and mix until it forms a thin paste or slurry. Pour into the pot and stir to incorporate.
- Bring to a rolling boil and cook for 1 minute, then reduce heat to low and continue to simmer 3-4 minutes to thicken the teriyaki sauce. Remove the sauce from heat. The sauce will continue to thicken as it cools.
Notes
- Optional: If you prefer a completely smooth teriyaki sauce, strain the sauce right after you remove from the heat to catch the bits of garlic and ginger.
- If you prefer thicker teriyaki sauce, you can either add more cornstarch in step 2, or simmer the sauce longer in step 3 until you have the desired consistency. Remember the teriyaki sauce does continue to thicken as it cools.
- Store extra teriyaki sauce in the refrigerator for 7-10 days.
