Note

Storage: Store leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Substitutions: If you do not have brown vinegar, you can use apple cider vinegar or rice vinegar for a similar tang. Light soy sauce can be replaced with regular soy sauce, though it may darken the color slightly.

Tip: For a thicker glaze, simmer the sauce for an additional 2-3 minutes. Taste and adjust sweetness with a bit more honey if desired.
