‘Brining’ is a process of tenderising and adding flavours to your Meat, Poultry, Fish and Seafood.
This recipe centres on Chicken as a main ingredient.
I’m currently writing a piece about ‘Why you shouldn’t and How to wash your Chicken’. A culturally sensitive piece that requires an in-depth view.

In the second episode of my ‘Chicken series’, I talk about Brining of your Chicken where you’ll need the following ingredients;
1.2kg of a whole Organic or Free Range Chicken
1 litre of lukewarm water
1 Habanero Chilli
1 tablespoonful of whole AllSpice
1 tablespoonful of whole Black Peppercorns
4 Bay leaves
200g of Kosher Salt
200g of Sugar
30g of Tarragon (you can substitute it with a tablespoonful of Aniseed or 1 teaspoonful of Caraway seeds)
The above ingredients were carefully selected to represent both the African and Caribbean heritage with a touch of a ‘diasporan’ diversity.
