How to Make Chinese Takeout Sauce
- In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, brown sugar (or honey), cornstarch, ginger (if using), and red pepper flakes (if using) until smooth.
- If using only takeout packets and the mixture is too thick, add a teaspoon of water at a time until desired consistency is reached.
- Heat a small saucepan over medium heat.
- Pour in the sauce mixture and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly.
- Simmer for 1 minute, or until the sauce has thickened to your liking.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly before using. Enjoy!
