Soy Sauce – I highly recommend low sodium soy sauce.

Sesame Oil – A good pure sesame oil is best.

Sugar – Regular white granulated sugar is best, but you can also use brown sugar if you don't have white on hand.

Rice Vinegar – Rice vinegar or white wine vinegar both work excellent in this recipe.
