so Im making the turkey for thanksgiving, i have the turkey in the fridge de-thawing, and i have my brine recipe all ready to go. but it calls for 1/2 ounce ground cloves and 1/2 ounce ground ginger - how do i measure that out? here is the brine recipe:
Wolfgang’s Brined Roast Turkey
Brine:
1 gallon water
1/2 ounce ground cloves
1/2 ounce ground ginger
4 ounces cracked black peppercorns
12 bay leaves
1 pound kosher salt
24 ounces honey
24 ounces maple syrup
1 (10-pound) whole fresh turkey
In a large stockpot, bring the water, cloves, ginger, black peppercorn, bay leaves and salt to a boil. Lower to a simmer and stir in the honey and maple syrup until well blended. Turn off heat and allow to cool to room temperature.
