Chef's Notes
Do not rush the reduction phase of the mirin, as evaporating that initial alcohol is the secret gatekeeper to unlocking a deeply authentic, restaurant-quality glaze.
Pro Tip
If you want a thicker, glossier sheen fit for an emperor, whisk in a tiny slurry of cornstarch during the final minutes of simmering.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Distracted by your phone, you let the sauce boil too fiercely on high heat, turning your exquisite teriyaki into a sticky, charcoal-black asphalt that permanently welds your favorite saucepan to the burner.
