Expert: Enrique Torres - 10/10/2009
Question How do I tell if the turkey I bought has been pre-brined? I bought a Maple Leaf Prime (Young Turkey from the supermarket and I'm not sure if I should brine it. I've heard some are pre-brined and that would make it excessively salty.
Answer Matt:
If they don't say it, any brine has been applied inside the meat.
When a meat has been pre-brined it should be registered (labeled) in order to inform consumers.
On the other hand the word "fresh" indicates that any ingredient has been used to give flavor, color and texture to meats.
Good luck,
Enrique
