Hey everyone! :) Recently ventured into making my own teriyaki sauce, but it turned out a bit more bitter than I liked. Anyone have an idea why is it so? Would love to hear your thoughts! Thanks!

Well, well, look at you getting all saucy in the kitchen! If your teriyaki sauce is being a bitter Betty, try low-sodium soy sauce, extra honey or sugar, and a splash of mirin for good measure. Don't overcook it, or it'll be bitter like my Aunt Mildred! With these changes, your teriyaki sauce will be so sweet, it'll give you a toothache! 😋
