Bourbon is a fantastic partner for soy sauce, and the combination makes a delicious quick-fix marinade that works with all sorts of meats and vegetables. Try it with red meat, skinless poultry, oily fish such as salmon, and hardy vegetables such as broccoli or portobello mushrooms. Best of all, there’s no need to worry about marinating overnight, since the strong flavors need only 30 minutes to a couple of hours to work their magic.
