to soak in a seasoned liquid before cooking 

Marinating is the process of soaking foods in a seasoned, often acidic, liquid before cooking. The origin of the word alludes to the use of brine (aqua marina or sea water) in the pickling process, which led to the technique of adding flavor by immersion in liquid. The liquid in question, the marinade, can be either acidic (made with ingredients such as vinegar, lemon juice, or wine) or enzymatic (made with ingredients such as pineapple, papaya, yogurt, or ginger), or have a neutral pH. In addition to these ingredients, a marinade often contains oils, herbs, and spices to further flavor the food items.

To soak meat, fish or vegetables in a liquid mixture called a marinade, usually consisting of a combination of oil, wine, herbs or garlic. Food is marinated so that it may absorb the flavours of the marinade, or, in the case of tough meat, to tenderise it.

Ingredients should be covered and refrigerated while they’re marinating. When fruits are similarly soaked, the term used is macerate.
