After extensive research in the kitchen and recipe testing, I found it was tricky to get the flavors to carry through the brining process to the final dish. The moisture was there, but the flavor was weak. Then I added all-natural aromatic oils to the blends. That did the trick. That's what makes our brines stand out compared to the other products in the market.
Smoky Brining Blend
The Smoky Brining Blend relies on hickory-smoked salt and mesquite notes from chipotle peppers to deliver a pleasing, yet subtle smoke flavor accented with whole green peppercorns. This blend is a great choice for turkey and white fish. Click here for brining tips. Lemon Steamed Fish Fillets In a bowl, combine Brining Blend with boiling water. Stir to dissolve salt and infuse water with flavor. Add ice cubes; stir to cool mixture. Rinse fillets under cold water and place in a container large enough to hold fish with brine. Pour brine mixture over the fillets and add enough cold water to cover completely. Place in refrigerator to brine for 20-30 minutes (use longer time for thicker fillets). Pre-heat oven to 425° F. When brining is complete, remove fillets from liquid and pat dry. (Do not rinse!) Create a foil steaming pouch for each serving of fish. For each pouch, tear off two 24 inch foil sheets and lay one on top of the other. Place 3-4 slices of lemon on the center of the double sheet and top with one serving of fish. Add chopped scallions and dot with one Tbsp. butter. Make a steam tent for each serving by closing the sides of the pouch then pinching the ends closed. Make a tight seal. Cook for 25-35 minutes or until the fish is just opaque throughout. Serve the cooked fish in the foil pouches or remove before serving as desired.
