Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.25 cup Tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
- 0.25 cup Gluten-free chicken broth or vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 cloves Fresh garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 0.25 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the tamari, gluten-free broth, honey, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Whisk together until well blended.
In a small separate bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry. Mix until smooth and free of lumps.
Add the cornstarch slurry to the tamari mixture and whisk to incorporate thoroughly.
Stir in the minced garlic, grated ginger, crushed red pepper flakes, and black pepper into the sauce mixture. Continue whisking until all ingredients are combined.
Pour the mixture into a small saucepan and heat over medium heat. Stir constantly to prevent the sauce from sticking and to ensure even thickening.
Cook for about 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency. Remember, it will thicken slightly more as it cools.
Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Use immediately to toss in a stir fry, or store in a sealed jar in the refrigerator for up to one week.
