Ever wondered how a multiple Michelin Star-rated chef brines? We did... and we asked.... and then we partnered with Michelin Star Chef Chucho Rojas to offer this recipe.
It's simple, it's delicious, it can be frozen and it comes conveniently packed so all you have to do is open the package and place it on top of your turkey under running water.
HOW DO I BRINE?
- Grab your protein and open it (frozen or thawed out, it doesn't matter)
- Place it in a bin or tub with cold water. The turkey will sit here for 6-12 hours.
- Add the brine (Don't forget the salt, which comes separately) and rub it all over the piece.
- After 4-10 hours remove from water and use a drainer to capture all the herbs and fruits. You want to grab these and place them back on the turkey right before you cook it.
- Get cooking!
