"My trusty Kikkoman Oriental Cookbook from 1993 has several wonderful recipies that are easy to make with simple ingredients that I usually have on hand. I also often substitue fresh ginger root with powered and always have a jar of pre-chopped garlic on hand. The sauce is a staple for all my beef stirfrys. If I don't have much time, I buy a package of Oriental frozen stir fry vegetables, which has a wonderful assortment and costs about $3."

This was good served over noodles. There just seemed to be something missing. Maybe because I used ginger in a jar it wasn't as pungent as it could have been. My dh loved it, so maybe I am too critical. I think a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds would have helped some, or a sprinkle of chopped green onion.
