mirin (see Notes for substitutions)

sugar

Boil sauce

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&#39;s thickened and reduced to your liking. Keep an eye on it as it can burn due to the high sugar content.

Check thickness

Check thickness: To test that it&#39;s thickened properly, drop a small amount of sauce onto a plate and let it cool. Check to see if it&#39;s reduced enough to your liking by running a spoon or finger through it.If it&#39;s too thin, boil for longer. If it&#39;s too thick, add a teaspoon of water at a time.

Store

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.
