Ingredients

  • 3 Gallons Ice Cold Water

  • 6 cloves Garlic, crushed

  • 12 Cardamom Seeds, whole

  • 3/4 Cup Brown Sugar

  • 3 TBSP Savoury

Directions

  • Mix it all up
  • Submerge the birds
  • Set them overnight in the fridge
  • Next day, rinse them off and pat dry
  • Cook as you wish.

Notes

  • I use a Briner Bucket when bringing or curing or keeping things submerged.
  • I use Newfoundland Savoury (Mount Scio) here, but dried savoury would be good too
