High FODMAP
Sesame Chicken Sauce
Avoid during the elimination phase of the diet.
Sesame chicken sauce combines soy, vinegar, sugar, sesame oil, and sometimes garlic for a sweet and savory glaze. High sugar content and frequent onion additions elevate fructose and fructan loads during reduction. Commercial bottles often include wheat thickeners, garlic extract, or high-fructose corn syrup to stabilize texture across batches. Those managing IBS should verify ingredient simplicity and measure usage carefully. Diluting with broth or water helps lower carbohydrate density before applying.

sticky_note_2 Clinical Notes
Prepare a safer version using tamari blended with brown rice syrup, rice vinegar, and certified low-FODMAP sesame seeds. Avoid store-bought varieties that list sugar or onion derivatives in the first three ingredients to minimize triggers. Apply a thin brushing application during final cooking to enjoy flavor while keeping fructose load manageable.
