- 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
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
