Ingredients
- 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1- inch piece fresh ginger grated
- 1/4 cup water for sauce thickening, optional
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch for sauce thickening, optional
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger. Stir well until the brown sugar is fully dissolved.
- Place your protein, tofu, or vegetables in a non-metal container. Pour the marinade over and let sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to enhance flavor.
- Optional: If you prefer a thicker sauce for glazing, pour any leftover marinade into a small saucepan. In a separate cup, whisk together the water and cornstarch to create a slurry.
- If you add a slurry, place the sauce in a saucepan over medium heat and cook for about 5 minutes until the sauce thickens.
