kosher salt
tapioca starch
brown sugar
dried shiitake mushrooms
soy sauce or tamari
Soak the mushrooms in boiling water to soften them. Add both the mushrooms and brothy water to a blender. Blend on high until smooth.
Pour the mushroom mixture into a saucepan over medium heat along with the brown sugar, reduced sodium soy sauce or tamari, and kosher salt. Whisk to combine.
In a small bowl, whisk together the starch and cold water until the starch has completely dissolved then pour it into the saucepan.
Continuously whisk until the sugar has dissolved, then reduce the heat to medium-low and keep stirring until the sauce has thickened and reached your desired consistency.
