Tips for Best Results

Use high-quality coarse salt for the best preservation results. Avoid using iodized table salt as it may contain additives that can affect the curing process.
Ensure the storage area maintains a consistent cool and dry environment to prevent spoilage.
Periodically check the stored chicken for any signs of spoilage. If you notice any off smells or discoloration, discard the chicken.

How to Use Salt-Cured Chicken

Before using the preserved chicken, soak it in water for several hours or overnight to rehydrate and remove excess salt. Salt-cured chicken is excellent for slow-cooking methods such as stews, soups, and braises. It can also be roasted or grilled after rehydration.
