Salt
Brines include salt for seasoning. Use any type of additive-free salt, such as Diamond Crystal kosher salt (Morton kosher salt is not ideal because it contains an anti-caking ingredient), or seek out canning and pickling salt, often called preserving salt, a fine-grained product that dissolves easily.
