Teriyaki Sauce Recipe the Homemade way

Homemade Teriyaki sauce:

There is no commercial version that comes close.

I live in the vicinity of several Chinese restaurants (who doesn’t?). Every morning I watch the mountain of trash at their back door, and it always includes enormous jerry cans of teriyaki sauce: No wonder all those dishes look like a container of motor oil has accidentally landed there. This unwelcome sight has totally cured me of any urges to order teriyaki sauce dishes at restaurants. Why, oh why don’t they make it themselves?

Nothing could be easier than making your own teryiaki sauce!

Use it on fish, chicken, London broil, tofu, Portobello, to name just a few possibilities.
