Teriyaki Sauce Recipe. Suggested Uses
Teriyaki Sauce
Teriyaki Sauce is one of my great favorites. 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 jerrycans of teriyaki sauce: No wonder so many of 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 them at restaurants.
Make it Yourself!
Nothing could be easier! Make your own in minutes. And just it keeps in the refrigerator perfectly, double or even triple the recipe!
Exciting Ways to use Teriyaki Sauce
Use it on fish, chicken, London broil, tofu, Portobello, noodles, to name just a few delicious possibilities. You will never again order salmon or anything teriyaki in a Chinese Restaurant: Why should you, when you can pour some of your new favorite homemade sauce over salmon, and bake it at 400 degrees for about 15 minutes and you’re done? That’s right, it’s simple as that!
