Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.75 cup Soy sauce
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 0.5 cup Pineapple juice
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, pineapple juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, rice vinegar, and sesame oil until the sugar is fully dissolved.
In a separate small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water together to create a slurry.
Transfer the sauce mixture to a small saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it begins to simmer.
Once the sauce is simmering, slowly whisk in the cornstarch slurry and continue stirring until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
Remove the sauce from heat and allow it to cool to room temperature.
Use immediately as a marinade for meats or vegetables, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
