*To make Pad Thai sauce:
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup lemon juice or tarmarin juice
1/2 cup water
2 tbs sugar
1/4 cup honey
1 tsp salt
Mix all the ingredients well and store in a glass jar (can be refrigerated for a long time). Adjust the seasoning to your liking. I add 1 tsp mushroom seasoning to the sauce. If you do not have the mushroom seasoning, use vegetable broth to add more flavor.
