Notes

Pure maple syrup can be used instead of honey. Other types of syrups will not work as well.
Sweet chili sauce, or your favorite hot sauce can be used in place of the sriracha sauce. The heat level will change depending on what type you use.
Powdered garlic and powdered ginger can be used, but the flavor will be less intense.
Lemon or lime juice can be used instead of rice vinegar, but it will add a more sour flavor.
