Start by measuring all your ingredients into a medium saucepan.

Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir until the sugar dissolves.

Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and allow it to cook for about 10 minutes.

In the last few minutes of simmering, add the minced garlic and ginger.

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the sesame oil.

Let the tare cool to room temperature.

Transfer the tare into a storage container.

Store the tare in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.

When ready to use, stir a few tablespoons into your ramen broth.
