Mixing the Marinade:
Related Articles
- In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, olive oil, molasses, grated ginger, dry mustard, minced garlic, white pepper, honey, brown sugar, and a dash of Tabasco sauce.
- Stir the ingredients until well incorporated, ensuring the sugar and honey dissolve completely, creating a harmonious blend of flavors.
Marinating the Meat:
- Pour the prepared marinade over your choice of meat, whether it be chicken, beef, or fish.
- Allow the meat to marinate for several hours, ideally overnight, in the refrigerator. This allows the flavors to penetrate deeply, resulting in a more flavorful and tender dish.
Grilling or Cooking:
- Once marinated, skewer the meat and grill it to perfection, basting with the marinade for an extra burst of flavor.
- Alternatively, you can use the marinade as a dipping sauce by straining out the solids after it has been allowed to sit for several hours. This dipping sauce pairs wonderfully with grilled meats or vegetables.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve the grilled meat or fish on skewers alongside steamed rice and stir-fried vegetables for a complete Asian-inspired meal.
Drizzle any remaining marinade over the cooked dishes for an added punch of flavor.
Garnish with sesame seeds, chopped scallions, or cilantro for a pop of color and freshness.
