Honey Soy Sauce
Honey soy sauce is a classic element of Asian cuisine, mainly used to flavor meats and vegetables. The rich umami flavor of soy sauce is perfectly balanced by the sweetness of honey, made even more exciting by ginger and garlic. Imagine drizzling this golden, silky sauce over a plate of freshly baked chicken or crispy vegetables, making every bite special. If you want an even spicier flavor, you can add a little extra chili flakes or sesame seeds.
