Ingredients

6 servings

½ cup low-sodium soy sauce
½ cup mirin ((sweet rice wine))
½ cup sake ((Japanese rice wine))
½ cup white sugar
¼ cup yellow onion (roughly chopped)
5 thin slices of fresh ginger ((about an inch worth))

Steps

Combine the soy sauce, mirin, sake, sugar, onion, and ginger in a medium-sized saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for about 8 minutes. The sauce will thicken and reduce a bit the longer you cook it. (Keep in mind that traditional teriyaki sauce is thin and not especially thick.)
Pour the sauce through a strainer, discarding the solids. Cool and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
