sauce essentials: tamari, molasses glaze

Recipe by

This is an easy/peasy glaze to prepare, and it is finger-lickin’ good. Thanks to the introduction of the molasses and white pepper, it has a very agreeable sweet heat. I usually add a bit more pepper, and ginger powder to mine, but I think this recipe is a good place to start. Once you have tried it, you can add what you will, and make it your own. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.

    I have used this glaze on chicken (as pictured), fish, pork, and veggies (carrots, broccoli, etc.). I have yet to try it on beef. It is a simple flavorful sauce/glaze. FYI: I really like it on veggies. Enjoy.
