TIL leftover pickle juice works better than store bought brine for marinating chicken
I read it on a food science blog last week that the vinegar and dill break down proteins just as fast as commercial stuff, so next time you finish a jar of pickles save the juice for cheap chicken prep, anyone else tried this with other meats?

I read at a farmers market they use pickle juice for pork chops too.

Oh great, so now I have to fight my husband for the pickle juice instead of just throwing the jar away like a normal person. Guess I'll be hiding the empty jars in the back of the fridge like some kind of secret agent. But honestly, if it keeps my chicken from tasting like cardboard, I'm in.
