Tips:

Select Fresh Garlic: Choose firm, plump garlic bulbs with no signs of sprouting or bruising. Fresh garlic yields the best flavor in marinades.
Use a Variety of Herbs and Spices: Experiment with different herbs and spices to create unique marinade flavors. Popular options include oregano, thyme, rosemary, basil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and chili flakes.
Adjust the Marinade's Sweetness and Acidity: Balance the flavors in your marinade by adjusting the amounts of sugar, honey, or agave syrup for sweetness and vinegar, lemon juice, or lime juice for acidity.
Marinate for the Right Amount of Time: The marinating time depends on the type of meat or vegetables you are using. Generally, tougher cuts of meat benefit from longer marinating times (up to 24 hours), while more delicate items like fish or vegetables should be marinated for a shorter period (30 minutes to 2 hours).
Use the Marinade as a Cooking Sauce: Don't discard the marinade after it has been used to flavor your food. Instead, reduce it over heat and use it as a flavorful sauce for your dish.
