Provided by Food Network

Categories     condiment

Time 10m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons sweet rice wine
1 tablespoon, plus 2 teaspoons brown sugar
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 1/2 teaspoons minced ginger
1/2 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon water

Steps:

  • Combine ingredients in a saucepan on medium heat until the sugar is dissolved.
  • To make glaze: Mix 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch with 1 tablespoon water. Heat sauce on medium high heat and add cornstarch water mixture. Simmer until thickened.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Soy Sauce: Opt for a high-quality soy sauce with a rich, umami flavor. Look for brands that use naturally brewed soy sauce and avoid those with added preservatives or artificial ingredients.
  • Use Fresh Ginger and Garlic: Freshly grated ginger and garlic add a burst of flavor to the sauce. Avoid using pre-packaged or jarred ginger and garlic, as they lack the same intensity and aroma.
  • Roast the Sesame Seeds: Toasting the sesame seeds enhances their nutty flavor and aroma. Simply spread them on a baking sheet and toast them in a preheated oven for a few minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Use a Variety of Sweeteners: The combination of brown sugar, honey, and mirin adds a complex sweetness to the sauce. Experiment with different ratios to achieve your desired sweetness level.
  • Adjust the Consistency: If you prefer a thicker sauce, add a cornstarch slurry or a bit of xanthan gum. For a thinner sauce, add a little water or chicken broth.

Conclusion:

With these recipes, you can easily create delicious and versatile teriyaki sauce at home. Whether you're marinating chicken, grilling vegetables, or stir-frying noodles, teriyaki sauce adds a savory, slightly sweet, and umami-rich flavor that elevates any dish.
