Tips & Substitutions
For a more robust flavor, consider adding fresh herbs like basil or thyme to the marinade. If you don’t have white vinegar, apple cider vinegar can be a great substitute. Adjust the garlic according to your preference; roasted garlic can also add a nice sweetness. Remember to let the marinade sit to develop its flavors before using it, and feel free to experiment with different cheese types.

Consider serving it alongside grilled corn or a refreshing cucumber salad for a complete meal. It's an ideal accompaniment for any outdoor gathering, especially on rainy summer days.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover marinade in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. It’s best to let it come to room temperature before using it again.
