Kefir Marinade for Pork Shashlik
Kefir marinade preserves the natural flavor of meat, prevents it from drying out, and adds juiciness. The meat cooks in 30–60 minutes, making this marinade perfect for quick preparations. Carbonated water makes the marinade more effective, while paprika and pepper add a savory kick.
