Now remember that aside from choosing a good cut of meat to throw over those hot coals, it is wise to have a flavorful marinade in which to soak those nice chunks. Marinating brings out the flavor and adds moistness to those cuts. This marinade I am sharing is fat free so flare-ups due to fat drippings are thus avoided.
A versatile recipe, this marinade goes well with whatever meat you fancy, whether it be chicken, fish, turkey, beef or pork. After soaking the cuts or pieces, one can use the meat in roasting, baking, broiling and best of all, thrown over those hot coals or wood chips.
During giftgiving season, one can prepare this marinade and pour it into sterilized jars, decorated and labelled in a fancy manner. I am sure this will be a gift that the recipient will appreciate. Just remember to keep the marinade in a refrigerator and have the recipient use it within a week.
Happy grilling.
Makes about ¾ cup enough to prepare around 1 ½ pounds meat, poultry or fish.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Cook's Notes:
As always, one can choose to add and delete ingredients depending on what is at hand and their own preferences.
Sake or any asian cooking wine can hold its own in this marinade. One can even use beer but then the recipe will no longer be a no fat one-will be highly caloric. Also if beer is used, I would tend to add sugar .
