Review: Instructions are easy. Mixes well.... - Instructions are easy to follow to use. Mixes well. We'll see the end result in a few weeks using this to make our first corned beef. Will update review if necessary. Otherwise, highly recommend.
Review: For cooks who want to flower...or brine. - I know you. You watch these "Molecular Gastronomy" chefs and wish you could do that kind of stuff also but you think "I failed HS chemistry, I can't do that!" Don't worry, think baby steps. Ham is old school MG (I don't want to keep writing that out). It's the perfect start. Prague powder is how you make a hunk of pig leg into pink (tastes like Christmas) ham instead of a brown (tastes like human) pork roast. Long ago someone discovered that this powder keeps pig pink and preserves it longer when brined in it and now you can do that also. Find a recipe online for making a ham. It will mention pink salt (not himalayan), curing salt, sodium nitrate, or even saltpetre, it's basically all the same thing. Keep in mind that this is MG that people did in the middle ages and if THOSE people (you think THEY mastered HS chemistry?) could do this magical meat making so can you. It's cheap to buy, in a convenient package, and will sit on the shelf until you get the goodies to say. "OK! I CAN DO THIS" and purchase a boston butt.
