About
Process of soaking meat in a solution of water, salt and sometimes sugar prior to cooking. This process changes the molecular structure of the meat causing it to become more tender, and retain more moisture and flavoring. Brining takes anywhere from a few hours to a couple of days and is good way to enhance chicken, turkey, and lean cuts of pork.
