Directions

15 min
  1. 1

    Pour 5 tbsp soy sauce, 3 tbsp sugar, 1 tbsp mirin, and 1 tbsp sake into a pot. Heat over medium-low heat while stirring to combine.

  2. 2

    Continue simmering while watching carefully to prevent overflow, until the mixture becomes thick and glossy.

  3. 3

    Remove from heat and let cool until it reaches a soft caramel-like consistency.

  4. 4

    As the temperature drops, the sauce will thicken further—a glossy, sticky texture is the ideal consistency.

  5. 5

    Use the finished sauce on yakitori skewers, or try it on tempura and other dishes for extra flavor.

Tips

To prevent overflow, avoid high heat. Simmer gently over medium-low heat for best results.
