Citrus Soy Syrup

This simple recipe originated in New Zealand compliments of New Zealand Wasabi Ltd & has been a busy little food find ever since I found it. It used the lovely lime flavour as written & which I prefer, but works equally well if you want the lemon soy syrup flavour. I always add roasted or fresh minced garlic to it & use it to dress crisp oriental salads & in all my citrus-based oriental dishes (Time doesn't include time for sauce to cool). Enjoy!
