Remember to add salt proportionate to the volume of the water - 5%. Are you taking the skins off the garlic? I reckon you should, and report back on the results so I know for next time :p
 
hahah the recipe i got says dont take off the skins so will leave it as is

and i added about 100ml (used the measuring jug in ML :D) of salt to the 2l of water

didnt throw tooo much of salt

added little pepper and garlic and chilli flakes

I ask because I just realised - brining will add salt to your dish, adding stock that has salt might make it unbearably salty.
 
hmm hope it doesnt come out tooo salty

i did add 3 teaspoons sugar to the brine ...read it somewhere

but will taste 1st and see if i can kill the saltiness somehow

Difficult. When are you planning to make it?

I'd advise against grape juice. In the past I've used white or red wine vinegar and added a bit of sugar to approximate wine. Grape juice will have a completely different profile to wine.
