Spices

It is necessary to choose those components that can mask the specific smell of pork and help reveal the taste of the meat from its most advantageous sides.

Sourness

It is important to create an acidic environment for the marinade so that the meat fibers become softer. For this, kefir, lemon juice or tomatoes with tomato paste are used as a base.

Onion

Without this component, you won't be able to make a tasty marinade. Therefore, you can safely add a lot of onions.

For the "zest"

If you want to make the marinade incredibly interesting, then add some pomegranate or pineapple juice. The taste of the meat will be revealed from a completely new side.
