Teriyaki Sauce

Ingredients

• 0.25 cup soy sauce
• 0.25 cup mirin
• 0.25 cup sake
• 2 tbsp granulated sugar

Instructions

1. Combine the soy sauce, mirin, sake, and sugar in a small saucepan and stir until the sugar is moistened, about 1 minute.
2. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar, 1–2 minutes, until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is steaming.
3. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce reduces by about one-third and looks glossy, 6–8 minutes; it should lightly coat the back of a spoon.
4. Remove from heat and let cool until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Use as a glaze or sauce, or refrigerate in a clean jar for up to 1 week.
