Marinades serve a dual purpose, infusing meat with wonderful flavor and tenderizing it at the same time. Marinades usually include an acidic ingredient that tenderizes, such as vinegar, wine, juice or tomatoes a salty flavor such as salt or soy sauce and sweet, spicy or aromatic ingredients such as freshly grated gingerroot, hot pepper flakes, garlic, onion and herbs.
To marinate meat, put all ingredients into a glass or ceramic bowl or in a resealable plastic bag. After adding the meat to the marinade, store it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
For most cooking methods, it’s best to drain off the marinade before cooking. In any case, to avoid potential illness, never serve a marinade that has held raw meat unless you boil it first for 5 minutes
