Hi Margo,

That’s a great observation! Coarse salt does have larger granules, which can lead to a saltier brine if you’re using the same volume measurement as you would for finer salt. Cutting back on the amount, as you suggested, is a good way to adjust the saltiness to your preference.

Thank you for sharing this tip. It’s insights like these that help everyone become a better home cook. Keep cooking and keep experimenting! ️✨

Using coarse salt could be your difference. It packs bigger punch. Might try using half as much next time

Oh great to hear that. Thank you so much!

thanks for your reply! i’ll try thaT

Thanks so much for your feedback. Definitely brine it for a shorter time if you feel it was too salty. And since it’s refrigerated, you can also reduce the salt according to your preference
