Game recipe calls for olive oil, ginger, garlic, balsamic vinegar, Worchestershire....and a tiny bit of Maple syrup.

Not enough for glazing.

Why add the maple syrup?

    To add a subtle taste of maple syrup? Why do you assume the answer involves chemistry? – Sneftel Jan 30 '22 at 07:38
  • @Sneftel, isn't changing the taste about chemistry? ie: volatile compounds in food. which would mean that you've answered the question :) – Mr Shane Jan 30 '22 at 16:31

To add sweetness and the taste of maple to the marinade, of course. Many marinades have some form of sugar in them.
