Why make homemade pineapple teriyaki sauce?
This is such a good question! I eat more closely to a candida diet and my hubby needs to avoid sodium. The soy sauce used in store bought teriyaki sauce makes it high in sodium. Coconut aminos are a great substitute for soy sauce plus it lowers the sodium significantly. I use the maple syrup and honey as a substitute for the brown sugar, which lowers the sugar content making this dish candida friendly.
It's time to get cooking!
