Soy garlic marinade is a popular Asian marinade used to flavor meats, vegetables, and even tofu. It is a versatile marinade that can be used for a variety of dishes, from grilled chicken to stir-fried beef. The marinade is typically made with soy sauce, garlic, ginger, green onions, and sesame oil. Soy sauce is a fermented bean product that gives the marinade its salty and umami flavor. Garlic and ginger are aromatic vegetables that add a pungent flavor to the marinade. Green onions add a fresh, sharp flavor, while sesame oil adds a rich, nutty flavor.
