Steps:
- Remove chicken from package (or if living in a country where chicken is really fresh, remove feathers, entrails (do not crush any bits) head, feet and wingtips and tail).
- In a large bowl or clean sink put the chicken or cut up pieces of meat then pour on cold water until covered then add 1/2 cup of table salt or use less and 1/2 cup of apple cider vinegar.
- Move the chicken around gently in this mixture for 10 to 15 minutes. Less time is ok if you see that the skin hangs loose on the meat.
- You can add sugar or brown sugar, molasses, honey, karo syrup, pancake syrup or artificial sweetner to the soak, but that and the salt are a matter of taste.
- Rinse gently with more clean cold water.
- Now you are ready to cook stovetop, oven, crock pot, campfire or whatever.
- Even an old elderly bird will usually be tenderized.
- My grandma also used this on game to make it tender and moist.
- Remember to use a sink cleanser that contains bleach on the sink, because chicken is a funny meat. You need to be careful with utensils after they were touched by any raw meat.
- I mention the clean up, because when I was a new cook I did not know.
Tips:
- Utilize a variety of vinegars: Experiment with different types of vinegars, such as white vinegar, rice vinegar, or balsamic vinegar, to create unique flavor profiles in your marinade.
- Choose fresh herbs and spices: Fresh herbs and spices impart more vibrant flavors compared to dried ones. If using dried herbs, adjust the quantity accordingly.
- Add a touch of sweetness: A small amount of honey, maple syrup, or brown sugar can balance the acidity of the vinegar and enhance the overall flavor of the marinade.
- Let it marinate: The longer the meat or vegetables marinate, the more flavorful they will become. However, be mindful of the marinating time to prevent the ingredients from becoming overly tender or acidic.
- Discard the marinade: Always discard the marinade after use to avoid potential contamination. Do not reuse it to prevent the spread of bacteria.
Conclusion:
With its tangy and versatile nature, apple cider vinegar marinade proves to be an excellent choice for a variety of dishes. Whether you prefer chicken, pork, beef, or vegetables, this marinade can elevate the flavors and create a delectable meal. Remember to experiment with different vinegars, herbs, spices, and sweeteners to find the perfect combination that suits your taste preferences. By following the tips provided, you can effortlessly create a flavorful and tender dish that will impress your family and friends.
