Good Question...
 

There is soo many ideas on what makes a good Teriyaki... the short answer is there are 3 ingredients... Mirin, Soya Sauce, and Brown Sugar...

I think it's good to experiment... until you find what you really like, some people like it more salty (more Soya Sauce) some more sweet (more Mirin and Sugar)

I used Molasses which I think gave it a unique flavour... richer. I also added a little rice vinegar, a little ginger and a little honey... Some people say garlic, but I wasn't feeling it this time round lol...

I also added some cornflower in an attempt to make it a little thicker (stickier) but that didn't seem to work lol... I am so still learning...

I must admit I did make a boo boo... but it turned out ok. I used Bonito Soya Sauce, which I dont think is the usual... I believe Bonito as a fish flavour too it, and I was worried... but it tasted great...

So yeah the long answer I guess is to experiment, try different combinations till you get it right... well right as in how you like it lol.

Dinner for 4 ready and plated, need I say any more ?

wait a second

is your washing machine in the kitchen?

The Aftermarth...
 

Oh and of course what happened at the end...

http://modelgirlfriends.com/images/b...i23_resize.jpg

:winkwink:

Yep...
 

It's quite common in the UK, especially when you have a fairly small house like ours... is that a bad thing ? :Oh crap

Teriyaki is not Chinese. Looks like a tasty meal though.

Good Point...
 

Good Point... ok this was my fusion mix, of Chinese Chow Mein, with Japanese Teriyaki... now I can say I am a fusion chef...

And thanks for the props... it was indeed very tasty ! :thumbsup

Take the damn skin of the salmon!!! :1orglaugh

Looks like a tasty meal

Salmon is typically cooked and served with skin-on

looks fucking awesome!

Hmmm...
 

I am open to people flying me to America to have me as a live in chef and pornographer all in one... especially if you live in Vegas ! :thumbsup #getmeagreencard

how come the laundry machine is in the kitchen?

Looking good!:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

looks good man you need a wok hit me up if you need one for a good price. :)

Awesome recovery! :1orglaugh :thumbsup

Yay
 

Thank you Sir :thumbsup

Fusion Chef does sound so much sexier :winkwink:

Hmmm...
 

In the UK we're more considerate to our women, putting the cooker and washer in the same room allows them to do all their chores in one place whilst still being able to give us a blow job all in one :winkwink:

am i the only one the see that it's written "my dog" on this picture:

Washing machines in kitchens is pretty common except in the US isn't it? There's water hookups in there after all, so it makes sense.

The food looks awesome! I want some.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh I caught that too!

ow wow that's funny

wtf is on that plate? :(

:winkwink:

What...
 

What you guys dont eat Dog ? :Oh crap

Only joking, it's molasses... as in brown sugar but even tastier NOMNOMNOM !

looks good lollllllllllllll

eating Chinese food always use chopsticks

No it's not a bad thing..... but a toilet in the kitchen wouldnt be good :2 cents:

you need better pans for that, they dont get hot enough.

Yep
 

I do actually agree.... now I am getting into cooking chinese/japanese (fusion) I will think about investing in a couple :thumbsup

That looks good!

So...
 

So it sounds like your all coming over to my place for fusion then :thumbsup

eeeh, isnt teriyaki japanese?

looks tasty :thumbsup
