Cure Salt

[LoSanco]

Newbie question please- how should i use the cure salt, someone told me to dissolve in water first, and then add meat to that water? I also have seen some people add it directly to their sausage mix?

I add cure #1 (@0.25%) directly to the meat along with the other dry spices, then mix. I don't add any water or other liquid (unless it's a liquid necessary for the recipe) at all unless the batter needs loosened up a bit.
