So we got a box of frozen chicken breasts for free from the grocery store as a promotion. These are the ones that have been pumped with sodium (680mg per 100g!) that I've asked my wife to stop buying because I don't agree with buying salt water.
However she asked if I could turn them into jerky. Now the biggest problem is that if I add the jerky seasoning I have (hi mountain) I'm going to have something so salty as to be inedible.
Is there a way to get the salt out of these chicken breasts, maybe by soaking them in plain water? Or can I get some of the nitrite in pure form somewhere so I don't have to add more salt?
