Ingredients
- 1 cup Soy Sauce (preferably Aloha Shoyu)
- 1 cup Brown Sugar
- 1 cup Pineapple Juice (100% juice, no added sugar)
- 4 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon Ginger (grated)
- 2 teaspoons Sesame Oil
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water (cold, to dissolve cornstarch)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, and pineapple juice. Stir well to dissolve the sugar.
Step 2
Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil to the saucepan. Stir to combine.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Step 4
In a small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in the cold water to create a smooth slurry.
Step 5
Once the sauce is simmering, slowly whisk in the cornstarch slurry to the pan. Continue to stir as the sauce thickens to your desired consistency (about 2-3 minutes).
Step 6
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the sauce to cool slightly.
Step 7
Store the teriyaki sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Shake or stir before use.
