"When looking to buy a 'good quality' soy sauce - check the ingredients list and look for a sauce where the first or second ingredient is soy beans. A lesser quality soy sauce will often list salt as the first ingredient or have soy beans way down the list...."
INGREDIENTS
•
¾ cup good-quality soy sauce (see note above)
•
¼ cup dark soy sauce (if dark soy sauce is not available or too intense for your taste, just use one full cup of regular soy sauce instead of the ¾ cup)

4 tablespoons sweet rice wine or mirin (optional)

5 tablespoons brown sugar
•
3 tablespoons white sugar
