Ingredients
- ½ cup Soy Sauce Gluten Free if needed
- ½ cup Granulated Sugar
- ½ cup Mirin Japanese sweet wine
Instructions
- Combine all three ingredients in a small saucepan, whisk well to combine.
- Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, reduce heat, and simmer gently until sauce volume has reduced to about ¾ cup. (If you boil it hard, you will end up with a caramel, not a sauce!)
- Remove from heat, allow to cool to room temperature.
- Once cooled, transfer to fridge and chill until you’re ready to use it.
- To serve, spoon sauce into a pastry bag or a sauce bottle (pictured). Cut the tip off the pastry bag (if applicable), squeeze sauce over prepared sushi, as desired.
