Korean barbecue sauce

It is real easy to buy sauce at the supermarket, it looks complicated to make your own... but these few years I start making different cuisine of different countries, I have lots of spices and ingredients at home. So now I start making my own sauce.

Actually Korean sauce consists of general ingredients, you may have them sitting at home but you didn't realize it! 
Try to make it once and then you'll understand why you no longer want to buy them in the supermarket :) 

It is healthier - without any preservatives... you can also make any quantity you want by multiplying the ingredient portions.
You can use this sauce for fried or stew, even as the name barbecue!



Ingredients
3 cloves garlic
2" fresh ginger
2 stalks scallions
1 tbsp sesame seed

1 tbsp brown sugar
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup Asian (Chinese) pear juice/purée
1 tbsp honey
2 tbsp sesame oil
black pepper

Instructions
1. Chop finely garlic & ginger

Sliced finely scallions, white & green part

Crush sesame seeds in a mortar & pestle to release the flavor

2. Mix everything together

You can use it right away or store it in an air-tight container for a week

Enjoy!
