Homemade Teriyaki Sauce
INGREDIENTS:
1 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
3 garlic cloves minced
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger
1/4 cup water
3 tablespoons cornstarch
DIRECTIONS:
In a medium-sized saucepan over medium-high heat whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, garlic, sesame oil, and ginger. Heat it to a simmer.
In a small bowl whisk together the water and cornstarch. Slowly whisk into the saucepan. Whisk the sauce constantly until it starts to thicken.
Remove from heat and cool.
Notes :
Make it gluten-free: Look for gluten-free soy sauce for a gluten-free version of the sauce.
Sugar Swap: You can trade out the brown sugar for honey or maple syrup if you desire, but it may change the consistency and taste slightly.
Grating Ginger: Use a knife to peel back as much ginger as you need. Using the smallest holes of a cheese grater, grate as much ginger as you need
