Ingredients for Asian Barbecue Glaze

  • Ketchup
  • Hoisin Sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • Toasted Sesame Oil
  • Fresh Ginger

How to Make Asian Barbecue Glaze

  1. Whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, honey, ginger, garlic, and sesame oil in a small saucepan.
  2. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
  3. Reduce heat to low and continue to simmer, stirring occasionally, until the glaze has thickened to your desired consistency (about 8-10 minutes).
  4. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before using. Brush generously onto your favorite protein or vegetables during the last 10-15 minutes of grilling or broiling.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
