Ingredients
For the teriyaki sauce:
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 tablespoons mirin (see note 1)
- 2 teaspoons fresh ginger grated (from one 6-inch piece, see note 2)
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1/4 teaspoon red chili flakes optional (see note 3)
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
For the noodles:
- 8 ounces Lo Mein Noodles or rice noodles
- thinly sliced scallions
- sesame seeds
Instructions
To make the teriyaki sauce:
- In a large nonstick skillet, combine soy sauce, sugar, water, mirin, ginger, garlic, and red pepper flakes, if using. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium and simmer.
- To make the cornstarch slurry, remove 2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce to a small bowl and whisk in cornstarch. Return to the saucepan and continue simmering until the sauce thickens slightly, about 1 minute.
To make the noodles:
- Meanwhile, in a large pot, bring 4 cups water and 1 tablespoon salt to boil. Add noodles and stir to separate. Boil until tender but still firm, about 4 to 6 minutes depending on package instructions. Drain well, rinse with cold water, and drain again.
- To the skillet with the teriyaki sauce, stir in noodles and toss gently until coated and heated through, about 2 minutes. Garnish with scallions and sesame seeds.
Notes
- Mirin: Mirin is a Japanese cooking wine that is widely available at grocery stores, Target, and Walmart. If you can’t find it, substitute 2 tablespoons dry white wine OR rice vinegar AND 1 teaspoon sugar for the 2 tablespoons mirin in this recipe.
- Ginger: Store the whole root in the freezer, as-is and grate it when you need it. Some grocery stores also sell tubes of grated ginger in the produce area and it works perfectly here (I usually pick up a tube of the garlic paste, too, if I’m going to make teriyaki sauce).
- Red pepper flakes: Maybe omit these if you’re feeding children (I always do) or add more if you love heat.
- Yield: This recipe makes about 4 cups noodles and 1 cup teriyaki sauce.
- Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
