Sauce Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Combine the Ingredients

    In a medium saucepan, combine the soy sauce, mirin, sugar, and sake. Stir well to mix.

  2. 2

    Heat the Mixture

    Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally until the sugar is fully dissolved.

  3. 3

    Thicken the Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water until smooth. Slowly pour this mixture into the simmering sauce while continuously stirring. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.

  4. 4

    Cool and Store

    Remove the saucepan from heat and let the eel sauce cool before transferring it to a storage container. Store in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
