Altered ingredient amounts. I used some of the suggestions that other reviewers had expressed. I used half the soy sauce that was advised it was also light soy (lower sodium). I let it marinate last night and all day today. It was to die for With the alterations made this is a 5 star marinade.  -  08 Oct 2008

Took shortcuts. This is a great marinade for just about anything you throw on the barbecue. I double the recipe and save it in my fridge so that it's ready to go when I want to prepare something quick in the morning for that evening's dinner.  -  08 Oct 2008

The taste was really good, but this was a little too salty. I even used low salt soy sauce. I used the full amount of garlic and ginger called for in the recipe and marinated a couple of steaks. They were very tender, but as I said, too salty.  -  08 Oct 2008
