Prep time:

20 minutes

Cook time:

15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup Soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup Water
  • 1 cup Brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup Mirin (non-alcoholic)
  • 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
  • 1 tablespoon Gochujang
  • 1 tablespoon Grated ginger
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons Grated garlic
  • 1 Scallion, finely chopped
  • 3 tablespoons Cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoons Water (for slurry)

Instructions

  1. Combine soy sauce, 1/4 cup of water, brown sugar, mirin, sesame oil, rice vinegar, black pepper, red pepper flakes, sriracha, ginger, garlic, and scallion in a saucepan. Heat the mixture on high until it reaches a boil, approximately 5-7 minutes.
  2. In a small bowl, create a slurry by combining 3 tablespoons of water with cornstarch. Once the sauce is boiling, add the cornstarch slurry and whisk until it thickens. Continue cooking until the sauce reaches a thickness that coats the back of a spoon and holds, approximately 6-8 minutes.
  3. Allow the sauce to cool completely before transferring it into a clean jar. It's ready for immediate use or can be stored in an airtight container for up to two weeks.
