Preparation

Step 1

Add all the sauce ingredients in a saucepan and whisk to combine. Bring to a boil and then reduce to low heat. Cook until sauce has reduced by about a half and reaches a thick consistency, whisking often. This should take about 15 minutes. Keep an eye on it to make sure it doesn't burn. Reserve one third of the sauce for serving and keep the remaining sauce to cook the skewers.

It is very important to use a LOW SODIUM tamari or soy sauce otherwise the sauce will be too salty. Make sure you don't add salt on the skewer or in the sauce.
