Sweet and Spicy Fried Turkey Brine
Ingredients
  • 1 gallon vegetable broth
  • 1 cup kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon black peppercorns
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons whole allspice berries
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons chopped candied ginger
  • 1 gallon water with ice chunks
  • 1 medium red apple, cored and sliced
  • 1/2 medium onion, sliced
  • 1 (3 inch) cinnamon stick
  • 4 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • 6 leaves fresh sage
  • 1 cup water
Instructions
1
Collect all necessary components.
2
Combine vegetable broth, kosher salt, brown sugar, peppercorns, allspice berries, and candied ginger in a substantial stockpot over medium-high heat. Stir vigorously to dissolve sugar and salt; bring the mixture to a rolling boil.
3
Transfer the pot from the heat source and allow it to cool down to a comfortable temperature. Cover it and refrigerate until it has chilled thoroughly, for at least 4 hours.
4
Take the chilled brine out of the refrigerator and add water with ice cubes, apple slices, onion pieces, cinnamon stick, rosemary sprigs, and sage leaves. Stir in the remaining 1 cup of water and your brine is now prepared for use
