ingredients
2 cups soy sauce
1 1/2 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed, or more to taste
3/4 cup molasses, or more to taste
2 cloves garlic, flattened with the side of a cleaver and peeled
2 slices ginger (each 1/4 inch thick), flattened with the side of a cleaver
2 whole star anise
OR
1 teaspoon anisette liqueur, PLUS"PLUS" means this ingredient in addition to the one on the next line, often with divided uses
1/4 teaspoon Liquid Smoke
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon coriander seeds
directions
Combine the soy sauce, 1 1/2 cups sugar, 3/4 cup molasses, the garlic, ginger, star anise, bay leaf, and coriander seeds in a medium-size, heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is dissolved.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, until the mixture is richly flavored and slightly syrupy, about 8 minutes. Stir the mixture as it cooks. Taste for seasoning, adding sugar or molasses as necessary; the sauce should be quite sweet.
Strain the ketchup into a clean jar and let cool. It will keep, tightly covered in the refrigerator, for several months.

Nutritional data has not been calculated yet.This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
