Step 1

Boil: Add all the ingredients to a sauce pan and heat over medium high heat uncovered. Once it comes to a boil, lower to medium heat and let it gently boil until it's thickened and reduced to your liking. Keep an eye on it as it can burn due to the high sugar content.

Step 2

Check thickness: To test that it's thickened properly, drop a small amount of sauce onto a plate and let it cool. Check to see if it's reduced enough to your liking by running a spoon or finger through it.If it's too thin, boil for longer. If it's too thick, add a teaspoon of water at a time.

Step 3

Store: Allow the sauce to cool then store in an airtight container in the fridge. Use within 5 days. This makes about ⅔ cup of sauce.

Step 4

Stir fries: Add the sauce at the end once your protein and vegetables are cooked.

Step 5

Glaze: Apply at the end and be sure to watch carefully as it can easily burn due to the sugar.

Step 6

Dip: Great for dumplings, chicken tenders, wings, lettuce wraps, egg rolls, etc.
