Brining is putting meat in heavy salt water with seasonings. The result is tender and juicy meats. It does not make the meat salty.

I have not heard of this method, though I do like to marinate my steaks.

You don't brine steaks or red meat, but its great for poultry and brisket.

Ah that must be why I never heard of it. I cook the steaks. The wife cooks all other meats.

Last night, we baked a Branzini fish in kosher salt. I learned the technique in Sicily while in cooking school. If you love fresh fish and like to adventure with cooking, look on youtube and try it! It was so easy! I filled the fish cavity with sliced lemon, fresh thyme and sliced garlic. Mixed egg whites with kosher salt. Covered the fish with a "salt cocoon". Baked it 30 minutes. Easy to clean up and very moist. Enjoy!

If you brine the turkey the white meat will come out flavorful, tender, and juicy. Brining also reduces cooking time and mitigates over cooking. It's magic.
