Sesame-Ginger Marinade

This marinade has it all: sweet, sour, and salty. Use it to flavor chicken, beef, pork, and salmon. Or, use it as a dipping sauce for dumplings and lettuce wraps. Be sure to follow our guide below on how long to marinate for each protein.

Excellent with salmon, chicken, pork, and steak!

Makes about 3/4 cup
