Place all ingredients (excluding the corn flour and the second measure of water), whisk to combine and begin to heat
In a small bowl whisk together the corn flour and water to create a slurry.
Add the corn flour slurry to the warmed teriyaki sauce, heat until the mixture comes to the boil and thickens.
Remove from the heat, allow to cool and store in the fridge in an airtight jar.

Homemade teriyaki sauce will last in the fridge for 3-4 weeks.
Sweetness: I have discovered some teriyaki sauces are sweeter than others, and the sweetness you prefer will come down to personal preference. I find 3 tablespoons of sugar is perfect, but if you like it a little sweeter, you can taste and then stir in an extra spoonful of sugar while the sauce is still warm.
Tamari: Is gluten-free soy sauce. If you don't need to have gluten-free teriyaki sauce you can just use regular soy sauce.
Brown sugar: I like the flavour the brown sugar adds, the recipe works equally well with white sugar, coconut sugar and maple syrup.
Rice vinegar: Rice vinegar and rice wine vinegar are the same things.
Corn flour (gluten-free): Arrowroot powder will also work.
