What is teriyaki?
Teriyaki is a Japanese cooking term which describes food (usually meat) that is dipped or brushed with a sauce and then quickly grilled or broiled.

The sauce used in teriyaki recipes is traditionally made with soy sauce, sake or mirin, and sugar or honey. Almost all teriyaki sauces include soy sauce and some kind of sugar (for sweetness).
