How to Make Did You Say Chocolate Teriyaki Sauce

  1. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup mirin, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon grated ginger, and 1 clove minced garlic.
  2. Bring the mixture to a simmer. Add 2 tablespoons of brown sugar (or to taste) and stir gently until completely dissolved.
  3. Allow the sugar to caramelize slightly, creating a rich, glossy consistency. This will take about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.
  4. Add 1 ounce of good quality dark chocolate (chopped or using chocolate chips). Stir continuously until the chocolate is melted and the sauce is smooth and velvety.
  5. Taste and adjust sweetness as needed. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
