Brining is a salt marinade which causes the meat tissues to absorb water and flavorings by breaking down the proteins. This is why brining is a popular method of preparing a Thanksgiving turkey because any moisture loss while roasting still produces a juicy and flavorful turkey. Itâs important to note that you do not want to brine a kosher or self-basting bird. Otherwise the turkey will be too salty. Most brining recipes call for a gallon of water or stock and a cup of salt and sugar each. From there, people often add apple juice, vinegar, whiskey, and other aromatics.
3CR13 stainless steel is a type of Chinese graded stainless steel similar to the 420J2 series popular in the continental United States. Regardless of how it is called, this steel is one of the most popular metals on the market when creating affordable and durable knives.
Type 316 is also austenitic, non-magnetic, and thermally nonhardenable stainless steel like Type 304. The carbon content is held to 0.08% maximum, while the nickel content is increased slightly. What distinguishes Type 316 from Type 304 is the addition of molybdenum up to a maximum of 3%.tainless and is the most widely used of the chromium nickel stainless and heat resisting steels. Type 303 contains added phosphorus and sulfur for better machining characteristics.Corrosion resistance is slightly less than 302/304. Type 303Se contains Se and P added to improve machinability.
