Brining a turkey

If you have never tried it you are really missing out.Plenty of recipes for brine on line but the majority are salt based. Try adding some fresh herbs or onions as well,I brined a couple weeks ago and did that plus a couple jiggers of worcestershire and orange zest. Boil it all and let it cool, then pop the bird in overnight. As mentioned in another thread make sure you dry the bird prior to deep frying.Always a good idea to get the bird up to room temp before frying for nice even cooking too.
