I mistakenly bought some Smithfield pork tenderloins that are packed in a brine solution. The last time I had them (and swore I'd never use them again), they were WAAAY too salty. I think because they are packed in a 12% solution. I am thinking I can soak them in water overnight, perhaps change the water a couple times, and try and get some of the salt in the pork to diffuse (?) back out of the meat. Anybody ever tried that? I don't think it can hurt.

Yep, that works for removing salt.
