->Teriyaki 10 <-

shallots chopped fine

garlic crushed and chopped fine

fresh grated ginger

green onions chopped fine

lime juice

lime zest finely chopped

worcestershire sauce

soy sauce

rice vinegar

balsamic vinegar

brown sugar

molasses or maple syrup

bourbon

black pepper

How much of each? Depends on your taste. The liquids are usually equal amounts. One part of each, though I'll use less soy and less

worcestershire than the rest. And the vinegar I'll use 1/2 part rice

and 1/2 part balsamic. I also use a little less lime juice unless

I want a caribbean flare.

The garlic, ginger, shallots and green onions are to taste. I like a lot of each at least 2 T or more.

You need the sugar and molasses to bring out the flavors, its an

integral part of teriyaki. I'll add until it tastes right. The

vinegar and sugar need to balance out with the sauce a little on

the sweet side.

This is a strong highly flavored marinade. Sometimes I'll do

chicken overnight and tough cuts of beef also over night. Again

it depends on how highly flavored you want the meat.
