Marinating - the path to perfect flavor

Marinating is a culinary technique where foods are soaked in a mixture of liquids, spices, and herbs for better flavor and texture. Marinades contain an acidic component like vinegar or lemon, oil, and spices. The acid helps break down meat fibers and tenderize it. Marinating time varies, meat marinates for hours, fish for less time. The result is juicier dishes.
