Terrific Teriyaki Sauces

There is no need to stress about which store variety of teriyaki sauce is safe to eat, when it is so quick and easy to make at home. You can make a fabulous teriyaki sauce in a matter of minutes that we think is much better than any store bought product.

Teriyaki sauce imparts a wonderful flavor to chicken, beef, pork, fish and even vegetables. Teriyaki sauce like other good marinades also tenderizes as it imparts flavor. Thinly sliced meats will absorb more flavor from the sauce and therefore should be marinated for a shorter period of time than thicker cuts or whole pieces of meat.

We recommend marinating meats in teriyaki sauce for two hours except for fish, which should be marinated for 30 minutes. Teriyaki sauce can also be brushed on or added to the meat or fish as it cooks.

You can experiment with creating your own uniquely flavored teriyaki sauces by adding different seasonings to our basic recipe. Try adding hot chili peppers for a spicy hot version or lemon or oranges for hint of fruit flavor.
