Marinade is a mixture of acid, vegetable oil, seasonings and salt. It is an excellent remedy for improving the taste of fish. Initially, it served for a longer storage of fish, preventing spoilage. In the present, when everyone is armed with refrigerators, we do not depend on marinades for the safety of food. Now they are used for piquancy and flavoring. Therefore, in cooking, many different versions of sauces have already been invented, which ennoble products. I also want to share one of them. But first, I'll reveal a few secrets.

Making lemon fish marinade
1. Remove the husk from the garlic and chop finely with a knife. Of course, it can be passed through a press, but the taste of the marinade will be slightly different. I recommend trying both options to see which one suits you best.
2. Peel the ginger and chop finely with a knife or finely grate. Add it to the garlic bowl.
3. Add the fish seasoning to the spices. Wash the lemon well and pat dry with a towel.
4. Grate its zest on a fine grater.
5. Then cut the lemon in half and squeeze the juice out. To make it easier to do this, make deep punctures in the lemon halves with a knife. Then you will be able to squeeze out more juice. It can also be obtained using a citrus juicer.
6. Pour in the soy sauce and stir the food.
7. Marinade is ready and you can use it as directed. It is suitable for any kind of fish. Therefore, be sure to take note of it.
In addition, if the resulting mass is grinded with a blender until smooth, then such a sauce can be put on the table with a fish steak. Therefore, this marinade can be called universal, in which you can simultaneously marinate and eat fish.
