When alcohol is used in a recipe, it is generally used for one of two
reasons; as a flavor enhancer in cooking, or as a meat tenderizer in
marinades. A variety of other foods do have the same properties as alcohol
in cooking and marinating and can be easily substituted in any recipe. Here
are a few suggestions:

1 cup of citrus juice, Lemonade, Pineapple or Orange Juice.

1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice or orange juice.

1 cup of tomato juice diluted by 1/4 with water or vinegar.

1/2 cup of light soy sauce and 1/2 cup of citrus juice.

1/2 cup of light soy sauce and 2 TBLS of oil.

1 cup of teriyaki sauce

1/3 cup of balsamic vinegar

FOR COOKING:
