Stir Fry Sauce Recipe {Homemade}
Description
The sauce is prepared by whisking together soy sauce, water, agave nectar or honey, cornstarch, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and chili garlic sauce. The cornstarch acts as a thickening agent to create a glossy texture when the sauce is cooked with stir-fried ingredients. The combination provides saltiness from the soy, sweetness from the agave, acidity from the vinegar, and a subtle heat with chili garlic sauce. Sesame oil adds a toasted aroma and richness.
Because it is made from common pantry ingredients, this sauce can easily be mixed in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator until needed. It enhances stir-fries with a balanced, layered flavor and a smooth, coating consistency.
