Equipment
- Small saucepan
- Whisk
- Measuring cups and spoons
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon cold water
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
- 1-2 tablespoons cannabis-infused oil or butter
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine the soy sauce, 1/4 cup water, brown sugar, honey (or maple syrup), rice vinegar, garlic, and ginger. Whisk together over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the mixture begins to simmer.
- In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of cold water to create a slurry. Slowly whisk the slurry into the simmering sauce. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens, about 1-2 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to low and whisk in the cannabis-infused oil or butter until it is fully incorporated into the sauce.
- Remove the saucepan from heat. Let the sauce cool slightly before using it as a marinade, glaze, or dipping sauce.
Notes
- Adjust the amount of cannabis-infused oil or butter based on your tolerance and desired potency.
- For a thicker sauce, add more cornstarch slurry in small increments.
- This sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Reheat gently before using.
