Instructions

  2. Then, use a grater to grind 1 tablespoon of ginger.
  3. After that, add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil into a pot and turn on fire to medium. Add grind garlic, ginger and stir fry them a little bit.
  4. Pour 1.5 cups of soy sauce into the pot. 
  5. Next, put 1 & ¾ cups of white sugar,  ¼ cup of brown sugar and ¾ teaspoon of black pepper into the pot. Mix it well.
  6. After, let it cook until it's boiling. Then, turn the fire to very low and simmer for 15-20 minutes. (Be careful it may overflow if the fire is too high. Keep stirring it once a while.)
  7. In the meanwhile, in a small container add 4 tablespoons of cornstarch and 3 tablespoons of water. Mix it very well. 
  8. Remember to mix the cornstarch very well before pouring into the sauce. Keep stirring the sauce for a minute and wait until it's boiling again. Then, simmer for 5 minutes. (Stir it once a while.) Lastly, add 1 teaspoon of sesame seeds (this is optional) and stir it well.
  9. Let it cool down before putting it into a container. When the sauce cools down, it will be thicker. 

Notes

  • When the sauce cools off, it will thicken.
  • Use a grater to grind ginger and garlic.
  • Add grind ginger, garlic, sesame oil, soy sauce, brown sugar, white sugar, black pepper and simmer for 15-20 minutes.
  • Add cornstarch mixture to thicken the sauce and simmer for another 5 minutes. Remember to stir the sauce a little bit when it’s simmering. Next, add sesame seeds and stir it well.
  • Be careful it may overflow if the fire is too high. Keep stirring it once a while.
  • Normally, when I use it to marinate meat, I do not add cornstarch mixture to thicken the sauce. However, when I use it as a dipping sauce. Then, I will add cornstarch to thicken the sauce a little bit.
  • When the sauce cools off, it will thicken.
