You can try to infuse your soy sauce with ginger and maybe some orange juice, but that's just adding different sugar. Sugar of some kind is essential to the sauce.
That has high fructose corn syrup.
I used to use Coconut Aminos to cut out all the soy which is more detrimental than sugar. You could also just use a sugar substitute like erythitrol or allulose which dissolves better in liquids if you're concerned about sugar.
Broccoli is not bitter at all. I dont understand posts like this. Like are you a literal child that has different tastebuds than the rest of us? What world do you live in?
This is my favorite beef and broccoli/oyster sauce beef recipe
I make a few adjustments including adding fish sauce but this is a good starting place
As others said, you really need sugar, it balances the saltiness
If you are going for healthy, either just use an extremely small amount of sauce, or just leave it out completely
In the case of China, it's a thing primarily in Southern China. Shanghai was an economic power house with a tropical climate, so they grew a lot of sugarcane. Later, the main source of immigrants to the US was from the south, and brought the food with them.
Northern Chinese food is not anywhere near as sweet.
sugarcane is native to southeast asia and can be grown pretty easily in local regions there, so they all got their hands on it pretty early on in their history. Due to the ability for it to be grown close by it was not nearly as much of a luxury item as it was in the western world, and it just became a commonly used ingredient over time

there is no such thing as a sauce without sugar in it.
therefore, you'd have to just not use sauce.

the heat of the beef cooks the broccoli
it's fine, all the sugar cooks out anyway
I used Better Than Bouillon. Half Sautéed Onion and half Seasoned Vegetable Base flavors. When I cooked the beef I added green onions and mushrooms.
while i would not choose your particular beverage flavors that meal is solid

Maybe you need to start eating apples again. It may be attracted by the sugar.
I still eat apples but I'm trying to buy the smallest ones I can. They just don't seem to taste as good as the larger ones.

Yeah, just add less sugar, or none at all, you God-damned fricking moron.
the sweetness of the sugar counteracts the bitterness of the broccoli.
if you dont want sugar then pick a less bitter vegetable to cook it with

pretty much every sauce has sugar or some sort of sugar alternative in it.

Yeah, just don't add the sugar. It wont taste the same but it will get the job done.
it's still technically sugar but the juice of half of an orange/tangarine/mandarine/etc.. will do the trick in a typical asian american sauce
