Expert Tips

If you want a richer and darker color, use dark soy sauce! The flavor is not too salty and will create a rich brown color.
Make sure that your cornstarch slurry is mixed in quickly and evenly in the sauce. If not, the sauce will become clump with the cornstarch.
Use the recommended ingredients to ensure that the flavor of the sauce is authentic and fragrant! Swapping out some of the ingredients may change the flavor and consistency of the sauce.
