This sweet-savory sauce is made by simmering soy sauce, sugar, and ginger until thickened. A familiar staple of Asian cuisine, it comes together quickly and pairs well with chicken, vegetables, and grilled foods.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Bring the Liquid Ingredients to a Boil

5 min

Combine the soy sauce, sugar, garlic, ginger, and water in a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat.

2

Thicken with Cornstarch

5 min

Add the cornstarch slurry to the boiling mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.

3

Cool and Serve

5 min

Remove the sauce from the heat and let it cool slightly. It will thicken further as it cools, so adjust the consistency accordingly.

Reminder

Allergen: Soy sauce may contain wheat (gluten); choose a gluten-free soy sauce if needed. Important: The sauce is salty, so taste it before adding any extra salt. Caution: Cornstarch can clump if added directly to hot liquid; first mix it with a little water.

Pişirme süresi fırınıma göre 10 dakika uzun sürdü. Ocak ayarını orta-kısıkta tutunca yanma olmadı.
