You’ve never had a turkey this good. Fruity white beer, coarse salt, a little brown sugar, juniper, fennel, apple, fresh herbs, and one night in the fridge. The next day, your turkey is juicy down to the last bite and it tastes like something all the way through, not just on the skin. This is my classic brine, the one I make every Christmas!<\/p>\n
The whole point of a brine is to get flavor into the meat. With just water and salt, your turkey will be juicy, but it’ll taste like… salt water. Belgian white beer brings a fruity, spiced side that goes so well with the juniper and coriander. No beer? Use white wine or cider, but not plain water.<\/p>\n
You dissolve the salt, let it cool, drop the turkey in, and the fridge does the rest. No giant pot? A cooler and a bag do the job. Once you’ve had a brined turkey like this, there’s no going back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
