Teriyaki stands for the Japanese way of preparing food and means grilling in a shiny way. Marinating your meat (usually chicken) or fish (usually salmon) in the delicious Kikkoman Teriyaki sauce and grilling it on a BBQ or in a grill pan creates a delicious shiny layer around your meat or fish. Marinating your meat or fish is super-fast with this sauce, you can grill it after about 30 minutes. However, as with all marinades, the longer you marinate, the more intense the flavours become. Teriyaki sauce always contains a fairly high percentage of sugars, which gives it its glazing appearance. Be careful not to let it burn, as this can make the sugar taste bitter.
