👩🏼‍🍳 Chef’s Tips

Be sure to keep an eye on the sauce as it cooks! Because of the high sugar content, it can quickly and easily burn or overcook. It only takes about 5 to 7 minutes for the sauce to thicken, so just remove it from the heat as soon as it thickens!
Gluten free teriyaki sauce is delicious as a dipping sauce, marinade, or glaze! Serve it with chicken nuggets or shrimp for dipping. Marinate your chicken before cooking a delicious Asian meal. Brush some on top of salmon for an irresistible glaze. This sauce is so delicious, you’ll be wanting to add it onto everything!
