Hark! I heard "Kent H." say:
The following from today's San Francisco Chronicle. There has been
dialogue in this NG about how much salt and how much sugar for turkey
brine. One wouldn't ordinarily post a newspaper article. Alice Water's
credentials, however make that appropriate, in my mind.
Please note that 2 cups kosher salt to 2.5 gallons of water is even less
than my 4 oz table salt to 1 gallon of water.
Thanks for the article -- I'm brining a turkey for the first time for
Christmas dinner, and all the recent huh-bub about salt quantity had me
nervous...
As well, here is the URL for the original article:
