Restaurant Style Teriyaki Sauce

I don't know why I never thought to make this before!  It just didn't occur to me that I could bring the magic of the $6 teriyaki bowl to my house :)

This recipe is from food.com and is easy and delicious, and only takes about 5 minutes to make.  It's slightly thickened, great for egg rolls and gyozas as a dipping sauce, or to pour over rice and chicken.  Enjoy!

From one hearty appletite to another...happy cooking!
