Ingredients

• 0.5 cups Soy sauce
• 0.25 cups Mirin (Japanese sweet cooking wine)
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 1 tablespoons Honey
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoons Ginger, freshly grated
• 1 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 1 teaspoons Sesame oil

Directions

Step 1

In a small saucepan, combine the soy sauce, mirin, brown sugar, and honey. Stir well to dissolve the sugar and honey.

Step 2

Add the minced garlic and freshly grated ginger to the mixture. Stir to combine, infusing the liquid with aromatic flavors.

Step 3

Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water to create a slurry. Ensure there are no lumps.

Step 5

Slowly whisk the cornstarch slurry into the simmering sauce. Continue stirring until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the sesame oil for an added layer of flavor and shine.

Step 7

Allow the sauce to cool slightly before using. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
