Ingredients

• 0.25 cup Gluten-free tamari sauce
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon Freshly ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry. Set aside.

Step 2

In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant but not browned.

Step 3

Stir in the gluten-free tamari sauce, brown sugar, freshly ground black pepper, and salt. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally until the sugar has fully dissolved.

Step 4

Slowly pour in the heavy cream while continuously stirring. Let the mixture come to a gentle simmer, but do not let it boil.

Step 5

Stir the cornstarch slurry again and add it to the saucepan, whisking continuously until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more black pepper or salt according to preference.

Step 7

Remove from heat and let it cool slightly before serving. The sauce can be poured over grilled meats, vegetables, or used as a dip for snacks.

Step 8

Store any leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Reheat gently before using.
