Equal parts of sesame oil, soy sauce, and sake thoroughly mixed make a
traditional Japanese sauce i forget the name of (onami? unami?), the
Japanese will often spice it up with garlic, hot pepper, citrus juices,
daikon and various other ingredients, but i find it very good with just
the 3 main ingredients of sake, sesame oil and soy sauce. Use it as a
marinade, a sauce for rice, meats & veggies, or a dipping sauce. Can be
thickened with an arrow root roux and heated to remove most of the
alcohol from the sake. Particularly good with pork IMO.

I had to google to find out what Shirataki is and am looking forward to
trying them. A google search of sake+sesame+soy+sauce will turn up
hundreds of variations on the sauce.
