Ingredients:

1/2 cup soy sauce
120g
1/4 cup honey
60g
1 tbsp mustard
16g
2 garlic cloves
6g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Measure out 1/2 cup (120g) of soy sauce.
- Measure out 1/4 cup (60g) of honey.
- Measure out 1 tablespoon (16g) of mustard.
- Peel and mince or finely chop the 2 garlic cloves (6g).
2. Combine the Ingredients:
- In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the soy sauce, honey, and mustard.
- Stir the mixture until the honey is fully dissolved and the mustard is well incorporated.
3. Add Garlic:
- Add the minced garlic to the bowl and stir to combine. Ensure the garlic is evenly distributed throughout the marinade.
4. Marinate Your Protein:
- Place your choice of protein (such as chicken, beef, pork, or tofu) into a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag.
- Pour the marinade over the protein, ensuring it's fully coated. If using a bag, seal it and turn it a few times to evenly distribute the marinade.
5. Marinating Time:
- Let the protein marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes for a quick marinade. For a more intense flavor, marinate for 2 to 4 hours or overnight.
6. Cook:
- After marinating, remove the protein from the marinade and cook as desired (grill, bake, stir-fry, etc.).
- Discard any remaining marinade that has been in contact with raw protein to avoid cross-contamination.
7. Enjoy:
- Serve your cooked protein alongside your favorite sides and enjoy the rich, flavorful result of your Honey, Soy, and Mustard Marinade!

Tips:

- Use fresh garlic for a more robust flavor. Mince it finely to ensure it mixes well with the other ingredients.

- Adjust the amount of mustard according to your taste. If you prefer a milder flavor, use less mustard, or add more if you enjoy a stronger kick.

- Marinate the meat for at least 30 minutes, but for the best results, let it marinate overnight in the refrigerator. This allows the flavors to deeply penetrate the meat.

- Reserve some of the marinade before adding the raw meat to use as a dipping sauce or to brush over the meat while cooking.

- If you find the marinade too salty due to the soy sauce, consider using a low-sodium soy sauce as an alternative.

Cooking with this Honey, Soy, and Mustard Marinade is an excellent way to infuse your meats with rich, layered flavors. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a marinade that enhances your dishes beautifully. Follow our tips for the best results, and enjoy a delicious and memorable meal that’s sure to impress your family and friends.
