(Recipe for making your own oyster sauce: Try combining 2 teaspoons soy sauce or teriyaki sauce with 1 teaspoon canning liquid from canned oysters and a pinch of sugar. For a more authentic version, chop 2 dozen shucked oysters and simmer in their liquid for 20 minutes, strain, and boil down the remaining liquid to 1 tablespoon.)
