Provided by Adam Bush

Total Time 15 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 7

200g coarse sea salt
100g light brown soft sugar
2 bay leaves
handful of thyme sprigs
10 peppercorns
1 orange, zest pared into strips
2 tbsp coriander seeds, toasted

Steps:

  • Fill a large container or stock pot with 1.5 litres cold water and set aside. The pot should be large enough to hold your turkey plus 3 litres water. Pour another 1.5 litres cold water into a large pan over a low-medium heat. Tip in the salt, sugar, bay, thyme, peppercorns, orange zest and coriander seeds, and whisk until the salt and sugar have completely dissolved. Remove from the heat, then pour into the container or stock pot and leave to cool completely.
  • Weigh the turkey and carefully add it to the container, ensuring it's completely submerged in the brine. Leave to brine for roughly 1 hr per 500g to ensure succulent meat and a flavourful bird, then drain well (discarding the aromatics), pat dry and roast.

KIMCHI | VEGETABLE RECIPES | JAMIE MAGAZINE



Kimchi | Vegetable recipes | Jamie magazine image

Kimchi is Korea’s famous dish and is traditionally made with cabbage, spiced up with garlic, ginger and shrimp paste. It’s full of flavour, but what’s more, it’s good for you too. The cabbage is mixed with salt, which starts off the lacto-fermentation process, where naturally occurring bacteria convert the vegetable sugars into lactic acid, a natural preservative. And, as beneficial bacteria thrive, eating it aids digestion. It’s so easy to make your own, and you can adjust the ingredients to suit your own tastes. Kimchi will last for up to three months in the fridge in an airtight jar.

Total Time 3 hours 5 minutes

Yield about 1 litre

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 Chinese cabbage
6 cloves of garlic
1 thumb-sized piece of ginger
2 teaspoons caster sugar
2 tablespoons Korean shrimp paste
2 tablespoons dried gochugaru (see tip)
200 g daikon (see tip)
6 spring onions

Steps:

    1. Quarter and remove the stalks from the cabbage, then chop it into 4cm pieces and place in a large bowl. Sprinkle over 4 tablespoons of sea salt and massage it in with your hands.
    2. Cover the cabbage with cold water and sit a plate on top to keep the veg submerged. Set aside for 2 hours.
    3. Tip the cabbage into a colander, rinse it thoroughly under cold water, then leave to drain for 30 minutes.
    4. Peel the garlic and ginger, then place in a food processor with the sugar and blitz to a smooth paste. Transfer it to a bowl and mix in the shrimp paste and gochugaru until combined.
    5. Matchstick the daikon and spring onions, then place in a large bowl.
    6. Squeeze out any excess water from the cabbage, then add it to the bowl, along with the gochugaru paste. Wearing disposable gloves, use your hands to mix it all together thoroughly.
    7. Spoon the kimchi into a large kilner jar and press it down so the juices rise, leaving a gap at the top, then close and seal the lid.
    8. Leave the kimchi to ferment at room temperature for 2 to 5 days (place the jar on a plate to catch any brine that might bubble over.) Check the kimchi every day, letting out some gas and pressing the vegetables down into the brine.
    9. When the kimchi tastes delicious, transfer the jar to the fridge for up to 3 months.

STAR ANISE BRINE RECIPE - NYT COOKING
Back in 2012, Sam Sifton spent some time with Jesse Griffiths, a hunter, and the author of who wrote “Afield: A Chef’s Guide to Preparing and Cooking Wild Game and Fish.” Mr. Griffiths brined the chops he hunted and gathered chops in an anise-flavored brine. “The result,” Sifton wrote at the time, “is like overproof American whiskey touched by a splash of water, its flavor enhanced rather than diluted by the process.” But home cooks should take note that this same brine is not just for feral boar. Use it on the very chops you’d buy at the supermarket. Simply make up the brine the night before (or even the morning of), and soak your chops. Try it in our recipe for smothered pork chops, or in your own recipe for chops, but do try it.
