  • Pretty much what chevron boy said - brine for too long and you ruin the fibres of the meat and you end up with a mushy texture.

    Harass me by text tonight and I'll send you what I use.

    What kind of salt are you using? Table or flaky Sea Salt? They have different densities and that impacts quantities for your brine.

  • I use regular table salt for brining, just cuz it's cheaper... Not the stuff I put in my pestle and mortar, that's too nice... #cheap

  • Nothing wrong with that - but to most people salt is salt. You can fuck up the brining if you don't take into account density

    (I have 4 types at home - table, Maldon, sel gris, smoked)
