Pineapple Honey Steak Marinade

Thanks to the anime food wars I made my best steak ever. The main characters dish is ruined by a classmate bully who poured salt all over his beef bourguignon. The protagonist partner believes they don't have enough time to cook another pot before the deadline. They manage to do it because the main character uses honey in the marinade. Honey has properties that break down the proteins in meat so you can cook it faster. He also mentions that pineapple juice can do the same thing. So I set out to make a marinade that included both of them and I made a delicious steak that I could pull apart with my fork.

Ingredients

1/2 cup honey

1/3 cup pineapple juice

1/2 cup soy sauce

1 tbsp ginger

1 tsp cumin

1 tsp garlic

2 tsp sea salt

1 tsp black pepper
