Teriyaki Sauce

Ingredients

1/2 cup soy sauce

1 cup water

1 Tbsp. fresh grated ginger - If you don't have any fresh ginger on hand you can just substitute with

1 Tbsp. ground ginger instead

3 Tbsp. brown sugar

1 clove garlic, minced

2 Tbsp. corn starch

1/4 cup cold water

Directions:

In a saucepan, combine 1 cup water, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly.

In a bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in 1/4 cup cold water and add to the sauce. Stir constantly to allow the sauce to thicken. If the sauce is a little too thick, add in some more water until it reaches the desired consistency.

Use in stir frys, on rice or vegetables, or in chicken, beef, or tofu dishes.
