Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons (grated) fresh ginger
- 0.33 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 clove (minced) garlic
- 2 tablespoons water

In a small bowl, combine water and cornstarch. Stir until the cornstarch is fully dissolved and set aside.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, add grated ginger, honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and minced garlic.
Stir the mixture regularly and bring it to a gentle simmer, allowing the flavors to meld for about 2-3 minutes.
Reduce heat to low. Give the cornstarch-water mixture a quick stir, then add it to the saucepan.

Let the glaze cool slightly before using it as a drizzle or brush-on glaze for your favorite dishes. Enjoy!
