Home made teriyaki sauce!
Yummm.
I haven't liked the teriyaki sauce I've been buying at the store, so I took a stab at making my own. So easy! Never again shall I buy it in a bottle.
I don't have a recipe per se. This was done very much by taste. But I used:
Soy sauce
Water
Brown sugar
Juice of 1/2 an orange
1 clove garlic
1 spring onion
A generous grating of ginger
A smidge of soy oil
A splash of red-wine vinegar (in place of sake + sugar or even rice-wine vinegar)
Chop, blend, heat it all up, let it cool. Done! It's a little thin because I didn't use any kind of thickener. I could just keep reducing it down but couldn't be bothered. I ended up with a perfectly balanced sauce that's sweet, tangy, spicy, rich and delicious. And it took about, oh, 3 min to make. And cost peanuts.
Yum!
I think if you use tamari (maybe) this can be gluten free.

Re: the smell, it seems to depend on the yeast. Some of the yeasts Luke uses are totally fine. A few are *very* stinky. Fart city!
I think hops take several years to flower after planting, so while they'll look good in the garden I don't think they'll be usable for a while for brewing. But hops are easy to buy via mail order or from your local brew supply shop.
