  • ¼ cup (2 parts) soy sauce
  • ¼ cup (2 parts) mirin
  • 2 tablespoons (1 part) brown sugar
  • 1 tsp fresh, peeled, finely-chopped ginger
  • 1 tsp fresh, peeled, finely-chopped garlic
  • A litte bit of sake (optional)

Directions

  1. Mix everything in a 1-quart pot over low heat until the sugar dissolves.

Notes

As given, this sauce is thin. Boil 1/2 tsp cornstarch or potato starch or kuzu root starch (for Japanese authenticity) into it if you wish to thicken it.

Pineapple juice might be a reasonable mirin substitute.

Lime juice may also be added for a tart flavor.
