1tablespoonSwerve or another low-carb sweetener
1teaspoonminced garlic

Instructions
Whisk It All Together: In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, water, sesame oil, sweetener, minced garlic, minced ginger, and red pepper flakes (if using). Give it a good whisking until the sweetener is fully dissolved and the flavors meld together harmoniously.
Thicken the Sauce (Optional): If you prefer a thicker sauce, sprinkle in the xanthan gum and continue whisking until the sauce thickens slightly. This step is entirely optional, and you can skip it if you prefer a thinner consistency for your stir fry.
Adjust to Taste: Take a moment to taste the sauce and make any necessary adjustments based on your preference. If you desire a sweeter profile, add a bit more sweetener. For a milder saltiness, incorporate a splash of water or rice vinegar to balance the flavors.
Ready to Serve: You can use the sauce immediately in your stir-fry to infuse it with delectable flavors. Alternatively, if you have leftovers or prefer to make a larger batch, transfer the sauce to a jar or airtight container. Refrigerate the sauce, and it will stay fresh for up to a week.
Notes
For an Asian-inspired twist, try adding a splash of toasted sesame oil or a sprinkle of sesame seeds to the sauce.
If you're a fan of citrus flavors, a squeeze of fresh lime or a dash of orange zest can add a refreshing tang to the sauce.
Feel free to experiment with different low-carb sweeteners to find the one that suits your taste buds best.
Customize the spiciness by adjusting the amount of red pepper flakes or adding a pinch of cayenne pepper for an extra kick.
