Here’s why you want to soak chicken from the store in salt water once you get it

1.Enhanced Flavor
Soaking chicken in salt water allows the salt to penetrate the meat, seasoning it more deeply than surface seasoning alone. This results in a more flavorful chicken, making a world of difference in your dishes.

2.Improved Moisture Retention
One of the most significant benefits of brining is enhanced moisture retention. The salt solution alters the protein structure of the meat, enabling it to retain moisture during cooking. This means your chicken will be juicier and less likely to dry out.

3.Better Texture
