This recipe was given to me in Japan by Okumurasan. I don't know where to find sake or mirin here (maybe an asian market?) Okumurasan told me to just use 4 tsp sugar instead, however it won't taste quite the same. Sake and Mirin are both Japanese wines, and they add a distinct, sweet taste to the sauce.
Ingredients:
3 1/2 cups water
1/4-1/2 cup soy sauce
2 teaspoons sake
2 teaspoons mirin
1 fish bouillon cube
Directions:
1. In a saucepan, mix all ingredients and bring to a rapid boil.
2. Remove from heat and cool before serving in individual dishes alongside a platter of tempura.
