Ingredients

1 cup water
⅓ cup soy sauce
⅓ cup brown sugar
2 tbsp honey
1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
2 tsp sesame oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ tsp ground ginger
¼ cup cold water
2 tbsp cornstarch

Instructions

Add one cup of water, honey, brown sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice wine vinegar and the minced garlic and ground ginger to a small pot. Whisk to ensure all of the ingredients are combined and the honey and brown sugar are dissolved into the liquid.
Bring the ingredients to a boil over medium-high heat stirring occasionally.
In a small cup add the cold water and the cornstarch. Use a fork to whisk the cornstarch into the water until it is completely dissolved to make a slurry.
Add the cornstarch slurry to the pot of boiling liquid and whisk to combine. Let simmer for about 60 to 90 seconds to thicken. Stir the teriyaki sauce and if the sauce coats the back of the spoon in an opaque layer it is done. The sauce should not slide off the spoon it should stick to it.
Remove sauce from the heat use in noodle dishes, as a dip, to baste on meat or fish or let cool and use as a marinade.
