RE: 20 Minute Meals: Teriyaki Chicken & Rice

in #food7 years ago

Mm, this looks good. I've always bought pre-made teriyaki sauce. It never crossed my mind to mix it from scratch. I'm going to give this a go, it looks tasty and healthy.

Sort:  

It's worth the little extra effort to make your own sauces. You control the ingredients and that removes some of the guess work of what you are eating and in general it's going to taste better as you get to adjust the flavor to your liking.

That's true, there are many questionable ingredients in pre-mixed foods.

"Natural Flavors" always raises suspicion. If it's natural why can't you tell me what it was?

Haha, I wonder what happens if you wrote to food companies and posed the same question? :D

I'm sure they have a canned legal explanation that actually doesn't explain anything. But it would be filled with so much industry jargon and legal talk that you would feel like the answer must actually be in there.

True. Very sad actually. Best to keep educating ourselves and learn to cook foods from scratch.
