The prune puree enhances the savory flavors of the soy sauce, garlic, and ginger while still allowing for lower levels of salt and sugar.
Combine all the ingredients in a medium saucepan and heat to 200F/93C. Lower the temperature to a gentle summer (approx 180F/82C). Continue to simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to avoid burning. Cool completely, then cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
