Easy Homemade Teriyaki Sauce

Easy Homemade Teriyaki Sauce


Thank you to Celeste at allrecipes.com who helped inspire me to come up with my own recipe for teriyaki sauce. Her recipe makes a ton so I scaled it back a little to make it my own.

Reg and I were separated for our 15th wedding anniversary for very sad reasons. As a result, I went back to Arisu for some more fabulous Japanese food to celebrate on my own. I got full before I could eat the beef teriyaki so I was going to have it as leftovers but the rice stole all that fabulous teriyaki sauce! So, I made my own.

This is a light and thin sauce which was perfect for adding flavour to my leftovers. If you want to thicken it, go ahead and add a cornstarch slurry.

I am seriously considering using this as a marinade for chicken soon. I will use half the recipe for a marinade and then the other half for a finishing sauce. As you know, in my foodie world, there can never been too much sauce.
