Brined Whole Turkey, Raw

Brined Whole Turkey, Raw

EverydayRawSalted

Brined whole turkey is a raw poultry product pre-treated with a saltwater solution to enhance moisture retention and flavor during cooking. This preparation method significantly increases sodium content compared to unbrined turkeys, requiring adjusted seasoning in recipes. Typically used for holiday meals, the bird’s brine may include herbs or spices, but its defining feature is the salt-infused flesh that remains tender when roasted or smoked.
