In the alleys of Tokyo, in the 1950s, yakitori stalls all had their own homemade sauce recipe. Some simmered it for hours, others added "secret" ingredients — a piece of onion slightly charred, a garlic clove crushed hastily, a piece of ginger grated without much reason. But essentially, the basic recipe was always the same: soy sauce, mirin, sake, and sugar.
