  • Brining these pork chops makes them moist, tender, and seasoned throughout, and the sugar helps create a dark, caramelized sheen. Watch as Molly perfectly pan-roasts brined pork chops!

      Reevun you are toxic. There is nothing at all for being a stoner. Especially when it's used for medical conditions. I use it for my anxiety and chronic back and knee pain + mild/severe arthritis. Don't judge like that. Before you insult me by saying it's self diagnosed, no it is not. It's all diagnosed from my primary doctor. Be respectful and respect shall be returned.

    I just tried this, without the basting, and even then the texture is firm yet juicy, with much more pork flavour than a simple pan fry.
    It really is the best way ive tasted to prepare pork chops. I imagine spcifically bred pigs would produce even better flavour. The pan seared crust, plenty of pepper and a little salt due to the brine, makes a beautiful cut of meat.
    Try it. Worth it.

    OK As someone that cooks a lot of meat, I was surprised to hear that flipping the meat as it rests, helps to keep the cooking more even. Is this recommended for a thick steak like a ribeye as well? I always let it rest an additional 5 minutes after I'm done cooking it to medium rare.

    • @Slash687
      @Slash687 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Meh, you can say the same thing for C*** F*** & S***. They're the same words for vagina, intercourse, and poop. It's a very status quo thing and sounds more harsh to the ear (moist vs juicy). Heck, I hear people say F*** before 6th grade and it took my until then to understand the context, but I still don't understand what the big deal is. American censorship is weird, too many sensitive people. Sex?! Oh no! Violence?! Hell yes queen!!!

    Brining would actually draw water out of the muscle. That is simple osmosis. Water follows along the concentration gradient and the brine is a hypertonic to the muscle.
    The reason brining makes meat juicier is because it prevents the contraction of muscles that would eventually force out liquid.
    Hope that helps!

    Due to the fact that my culinary knowledge is quite limited, I don't know if this is correct or not. But I love the apron you're wearing, it looks very snug, but it still open at the back. Very cool.

      Jock McBile I know! I like that she doesn’t have to tie it in the back! Ideal apron to have around.

    Have been researching and experimenting with recipes for thick, bone-in pork chops. This is the best I've seen - overcomes errors I have made. Have to read the popup text for the correct roasting temperature - 450F - hotter than I would have expected

    Brining does not push water into the meat. If that's all you wanted you would just soak it in pure water, salt would make it less effective! The brine pulls liquid OUT of the meat which in turn causes muscle tissue to breakdown and tenderize.

    • @pietateip
      @pietateip 6 ปีที่แล้ว +26

      well you're both right but you're thinking too much of how salt extracts liquid. Salt interacts with the proteins in the meat to draw in and retain water within the cells, that's why you flavor your brine.

    • @nikofloros
      @nikofloros 6 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      You're right, my phrasing is not quite right. What I wanted to say is that brine doesn't JUST push water in. First it pulls quite a bit of liquid out which is the important part of the process. Only after some time can the salt and water go back in. J. Kenji Lopez-Alt has done some really good experiments to show how brining really works, I'll see if I can find links.

    • @pietateip
      @pietateip 6 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      yep, I know kenji's experiments :)
      let's just say that Bon Appetit went a bit short on the brine explanation.

      @cs7160 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I thought that as well, I mean at least when you dry salt meat you're removing water from it (due to osmosis). But I guess the water comes back in once the salt levels in the brine and in the meat reach equilibrium ?

    I hate that people hate moist. Moist is how you talk about meat.
    I don't care how hip we millennials think we are, no one should ever call a sufficiently hydrated piece of meat *damp*
    But seriously good video as always
