Topic: Matt: URGENT culinary advice requested!

I dry brine pretty much all my meats now (with Diamond kosher salt).

I have some wee little chicken tenderloins dry brining while I am at work. There is a recipe for baharat chicken I would like to try. However, it calls for a wet marinade.

Can I put dry brined chicken in a wet marinade for a brief bit of time?

THank you Matt

Not Matt, but hell yeah my friend. Just run that chicken under some tap water to wash off what you can! I use that trick to get the salt content back down on can chicken bits because I can't be bothered to keep fresh meat around.

Have you considered trying Butter Brining?

@OP

Whatever you're doing to your meat, it sounds very ethnic

Mediterranean Dish.
Juicy baked boneless chicken thighs get a Middle Eastern makeover with a bold garlicy marinade with one of my favorite warm spice blends, baharat. The BEST chicken and potatoes dinner you’ll make!

Yes you can. just be careful with too much sodium/salt.

It's an excellent source of umami.

I ended up making something else, I got started cooking too late and didn't want to fuck around with mincing that much garlic.

That's a good point. Anymore I try to get salt-free spice blends wherever I can, because I dry brine everything. Weirdly I have never tasted the salt. I have to think that just a tiny part of the salt from dry brine ends up being detectable flavor-wise. Maybe it's adding to the sodium content? But it really seems to be doing more breaking down of the meat than flavoring it. I shall research i.e. see what Kenji Lopez-Alt says.

Dry brining is good stuff. What have you cooked with it? And yes, it tenderizes the meat.
