Gather all your ingredients: gochujang, minced garlic, toasted sesame oil, honey, sugar, rice vinegar, and salt.

In a mixing bowl, place three tablespoons of gochujang, one minced garlic clove, two teaspoons of toasted sesame oil, one tablespoon of honey, and one teaspoon of sugar. Pour in one tablespoon of rice vinegar and a pinch of salt if desired.

Using a whisk or a fork, stir the ingredients together vigorously for about 30 seconds until smooth.

Taste the sauce and adjust the flavors as needed, adding more gochujang for heat or honey/sugar for sweetness.

Serve immediately over rice or store in a glass container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
