This marinade balances the earthy sweetness of maple syrup with salty soy sauce, garlic, and ginger for a glossy finish on grilled or roasted meats. It works well on chicken, salmon, pork, or tofu, and doubles as a basting glaze during cooking. Whisk it together in minutes and let it work while you prep the rest of the meal.
