Homemade Teriyaki Marinade

I'm slightly addicted to making my own sauces and spice mixes.  It's part of my very mild attempt to live with less preservatives.  Mentally, it really makes me feel like I've accomplished something... I'm not sure what, but let's just go with it! ;)
I found this yummy recipe on Pinterest and decided to re-create it at home, but I wanted to make the teriyaki instead of buying a pre-made bottle.  I never realized how easy it was to make ... and it's so versatile!  You can use this for marinating any meat/seafood, add it to rice, use it as a thin dipping sauce, or throw it in a stir fry!  I love it!  I have a bottle waiting in the fridge.
Best dishes and yummy dreams!

Teriyaki Sauce

Recipe adapted from:  Food.com

1/2 c. soy sauce

2 c. unsweetened 100% pineapple juice 

1 tsp. garlic powder

1 tsp. ground ginger

1 tsp. dry mustard

1/2 tsp. white pepper

3 tbsp. brown sugar

1.  Mix all ingredients together.  

2. Refrigerate and then serve.

*Some reviewers suggested simmering the liquid in a pan to create a more syrupy consistency - its up to you!

I stored the teriyaki in a reusable glass salad dressing container.  Perfect!
