Note

Storage: This sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Allow it to come to room temperature before serving for the best flavor and consistency.

Substitutions: If you do not have sake on hand, you can substitute it with dry white wine or a splash of rice vinegar for acidity. For a gluten-free version, ensure you use tamari instead of regular soy sauce.

Variations: Add a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup if you prefer a slightly sweeter profile. For extra depth, mix in a small amount of sesame oil.
