Wasabi Maple Marinade

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons wasabi powder (if unable to find wasabi powder, replace with 2 tbsps. Horseradish)
1/4 cup real maple syrup
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
3/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 clove of garlic, minced fine
1 tablespoon minced shallot or red onion
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
1/4 cup cold water

Preparation:

In a medium sized mixing bowl, mix all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight container.

When you are ready to use this marinade, bring it up to room temperature to allow the olive oil to liquefy.

Thoroughly coat your meat or vegetable and allow to soak for 1-2 hours in the refrigerator before grilling.
