\nI remember when I was still starting my culinary \u201ccareer\u201d. I once saw that a friend, having brought home a chicken from the store, immediately poured salt water on it.\n
For the first time I was surprised \u2013 why? But there is a sense in this, and a very big one.\n
That\u2019s right \u2013 different chemistry, hormones, antibiotics.\n
Now I always soak chicken from the store in salt water. It\u2019s a pity I didn\u2019t know about this before, I\u2019ll tell you why
\nAmong my friends there are those who try not to pay attention to this problem. They do not subject store-bought chicken to any additional processing.\n
\n
So I try to get rid of all this crap as much as possible. I used to make everything simpler \u2013 if I baked it in the oven, I would marinate it. And if for first courses, I drained the first water.\n
But now I have a universal method for all options.
\nFirst you need a liter of water. I add a teaspoon of citric acid and 3 tablespoons of salt to it. The solution must be stirred until the salt is completely dissolved.\n
Then I dip the chicken in this solution. It is important that the carcass is completely immersed in it!\n
I leave it to \u201csour\u201d for 3 hours, you can even let it sit all night.\n
This simple solution perfectly removes all the excess from the chicken. And as a bonus \u2013 juicier and softer poultry meat.\n
Friends, I confidently recommend this method to you. I use it myself and know what I\u2019m talking about.\n
Now I always soak chicken from the store in salt water. It\u2019s a pity I didn\u2019t know about this before, I\u2019ll tell you why\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
