Why homemade teriyaki sauce outperforms the store-bought variety
In short: This video demonstrates how to craft a superior teriyaki sauce using only four ingredients. By making it yourself, you gain complete control over sugar levels, salt content, and the quality of your flavorings.
The process involves combining one cup of tamari or soy sauce with mirin, sugar, and aromatics like ginger, onion, and garlic. To achieve a smooth texture, these aromatics are grated into the pot and then strained out after the sugar has dissolved.
Because the sweetness of mirin varies, the recipe suggests tasting ingredients first to adjust the sugar amount. Once prepared and stored in a sealable glass bottle in the fridge, the sauce remains viable for three to four months.
