What it is
Teriyaki glaze is a sweet and savory sauce originating from Japan. It is typically made with soy sauce, mirin (a sweet rice wine), sugar or honey, and ginger.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use teriyaki glaze to add a distinct sweet and savory flavor to foods. It also helps to create a glossy finish and caramelization when cooked. It is commonly found in marinades, sauces, and glazes for meats, poultry, and seafood, as well as in stir-fries and noodle dishes.
Health notes
Teriyaki glaze is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a complex mixture of ingredients, and health considerations are typically related to its components, such as sodium and sugar content. JECFA has evaluated some individual components of teriyaki glaze. Evidence regarding the health effects of typical consumption is mixed, with some studies linking high intake of sodium and added sugars to negative health outcomes, while others show no significant effects at moderate levels.
Allergen info
Teriyaki glaze is often made with soy sauce, which is derived from soy, a major allergen. Wheat is also a common ingredient in soy sauce, making gluten a potential allergen. Not a major allergen if made without soy or wheat.
