Description
Combination of two of my favorite recipes.
Ingredients
- 1 gallon low-sodium vegetable broth
- ½ gallon apple cider
- ½ gallon apple juice
- 2 quarts water
- 1 ½ cups kosher salt
- 3 tablespoons poultry seasoning
- 3 tablespoons onion powder
- 1 tablespoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon crushed dried rosemary
- 1 tablespoon rubbed dried sage
- 1 tablespoon dried thyme leaves
Directions
- 1. In a large stock pot over medium heat, pour in the vegetable broth, apple cider, apple juice, and water; stir in kosher salt, poultry seasoning, onion powder, black pepper, rosemary, sage, and thyme. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring until all salt has dissolved, and boil for 30 minutes to extract flavors from herbs. Remove from heat, and allow to cool to room temperature before using as a turkey brine; allow brined turkey to marinate overnight.
