This savory marinade brings out the best in pork, combining sweet, salty, and aromatic flavors for a delicious result.
In a mixing bowl, combine the five-spice seasoning and light soy sauce.
Mixing the dry and liquid ingredients first ensures even distribution of flavors.
Add the honey and sherry to the bowl and whisk until the honey is fully dissolved.
Warming the honey slightly can help it dissolve more easily.
Grate the fresh garlic and ginger into the bowl and mix well.
Grating the garlic and ginger releases more flavor compared to chopping.
Use the marinade immediately or store it in the refrigerator until needed.
For best results, let the marinade sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
