Kelly Morse Johnson 4.1 18 Cue the Swedish Chef and mix all.  Taste, balance the salt/sweet/acid/heat, and thin with water to your desired consistency.  Fish sauce is a good addition, though watch the salt and reduce the tamari accordingly.  This will break if heated too much, though it still tastes good.
