I'm sure everyone is tired of the topic of turkey brining, but I have
a problem. I am set to serve a turkey lunch for 30+ people and want it to turn out well. Because I live in Japan and must buy my turkeys from a mail-order import company, I have little choice about what turkey I get. Last year, I got natural turkeys. This year, they sent me 9 pound turkeys injected with an 8% solution of turkey broth and salt (I had to buy the small ones due to oven size). I normally don't buy this kind of turkey. I did a search of previous posts, and the consensus seems to be that you should only brine non-injected turkeys. However, could I get away with using a lower concentration of salt? What adjustments should I make for the size of the birds? I've been brining for so long that I've forgotten what else I can do to ensure moist, tasty meat (besides using another kind of meat). Any help would be appreciated! |
