Steps:
- Makes 1 quart- make up additional amounts of brine if needed until meat is submerged.
- Stir ingredients together in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
- Continue stirring until sugar is dissolved.
- Allow to cool.
- Place meat or poultry in a food safe plastic bag inside another container for support and leakage control (oven roasting bags are a fine choice- NOT garbage bags).
- Pour cooled brine into bag, and squeeze out as much air as possible and seal with a twistie tie.
- Refrigerate for 3-4 hours for 3 pounds meat (such as pork ribs), 5-6 hours for a nice roasting hen, or 12-24 hours for a turkey, 12 hours being for a small one and the longer time for those turkeys around 20+ pounds.
- Discard brine before using and pat meat dry.
- If using poultry, you may want to add citrus fruit such as oranges or lemons, additional fresh herbs, or cloves of garlic into the cavity.
- Prepare meat as desired- roast, bbq, etc.

Steps:
- Pour the warm water into a container that is twice the volume of the water. Pour in the salt, sugar, soy sauce, and olive oil. Stir until the sugar and salt have dissolved, then allow the brine to cool to room temperature.
- To use, place chicken in the brine, cover, and refrigerate two hours for skinless breasts, 4 hours for bone-in pieces, and 4 hours to overnight for whole chickens. Drain and pat the chicken dry before cooking. One gallon of brine is enough for 6 pounds of whole chicken or bone-in chicken pieces, and up to 10 pounds of skinless, boneless chicken breasts.

BRINED ONE-HOUR BRISKET (PRESSURE COOKER)
Adapted from a Tasting Table recipe, which was itself adapted from a recipe by Nathan Shapiro of the Ashby Inn in Paris, VA. It makes LOADS of gravy for the amount of meat, so plan for that. I actually use about half as much stock as it calls for, as my pressure skillet won't hold that amount, and it still makes plenty of gravy, which can be used to make beefy soups later.

Steps:
- Combine all brine ingredients EXCEPT ice water in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium high heat, stirring occasionally until salt and sugar are dissolved. Remove from heat, add ice water, and let cool.
- Place the brisket in a large bowl or an pour the cooled brine over it. Cover and refrigerate 9 hours or overnight. I like to put a heavy small plate on top of the meat to keep it submerged.
- The next day, discard the brine and dry the brisket well. Brown the meat well on both sides in a small amount of butter in the pressure cooker pan. Remove meat and set aside.
- Melt the remaining butter in the pressure cooker pan. Add the onions and star anise and cook, stirring frequently, until onions have started to caramelize, about 8 to 10 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, until well incorporated in the onion mixture, then add the stock and browned brisket.
- Place the lid on the pressure cooker, lock it, and bring up to full pressure. Reduce the heat to low and cook one hour. Remove from heat, release pressure, and set aside to rest for 20 minutes.
- After resting, remove brisket and slice thinly. Keep warm.
- Puree cooking liquid and onions using an immersion blender or food processor. Place puree back in pressure cooker pan and reduce by half on a gentle simmer, about 15 minutes. Thicken reduced jus for gravy using flour or other thickener, if desired.

- Prepare a mixture of three parts salt and one part sugar. The salt may be kosher or sea salt. The sugar can be any white crystal sugar, but not 10X or confectioner's sugar.
- Dissolve the sugar/salt mixture in water. The salt to water ratio should be 1:16—for every gallon of water you should have a cup of salt (50-60 grams of salt per litre water).
- Add any flavorings you wish. Sharp liquids (vinegars and citrus juices), whole seeds, and dried herbs and spices work especially well. Thicker liquids such as honey, oil and some sauces will impart fewer flavors unless boiled (see step 4, substep 1).
- Store it in a refrigerator or other cooler space. Cuts of pork, wild game, and larger poultry, such as turkey, can be brined anywhere from 4-12 hours; smaller cuts and birds should be brined for 30 minutes to 2 hours.
