Eel Sauce

 Found this tucked in a cookbook. I couldn’t find it until recently! 

It’s meant to be drizzled on like a thick sauce. It’s been a couple years but trust me, it’s good. 

Eel Sauce

1 cup mirin

1/2 cup sake

1 cup sugar

4 teaspoons Hondashi pellets (Japanese product) 

Stir to dissolve. Boil.

Add 1 cup soy sauce, boil again then reduce to simmer 15 minutes. Bring back to boil then add a cornstarch slurry of 1 Tb cold water to 1 Tb cornstarch. Stir. Boil 5 min. Cool 1 hour then bottle.
