Season the mixture with salt and ground black pepper to enhance the flavors.
Allow the mixture to come to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking or burning.
Reduce the heat to low and let the glaze cook for 8-10 minutes, or until it thickens slightly.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool for a few minutes. The glaze will continue to thicken as it cools.
Use immediately as a glaze for meats, roasted vegetables, or grilled items, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
