maybe something different,
I like to use 1 cup of chicken stock with 2 tbsp soy sauce/tamari sauce, 1 1/2 tbsp of sugar and some garlic,
its a nice light sweet flavor.
similar to tempura sauce but with out the mirin

clam sauce: lightly sautéed garlic and clam juice reduced to about 1/2. then add some heavy cream or half & half, minced clams, and a splash of vermouth. heat just until hot. lmk if you want the exact recipe. its really good on pasta or anything else. tons of flavor.

I like using pork or chicken stock for a base.
Bacon fat is a good one...

milk is good too if you want a creamy dish and you know how to season it right..
