anyone that uses table salt in food is lacking in taste

[dhdjdbrjrkbr]

IMO the only place for table salt is in salt dough or to dye. Was just round a friends and she was seasoning a "home made" soup and poured a load in. I did my best not to raise my eyebrows but seriously even a bit of bog standard Maldon is cheap enough.

I have 6 different salts in the house, and to me table salt is not for food, no depth of flavour or hints and tones, just pure sodium!

I like my posh Cornish sea salt.
I bought it in Waitrose. I fucking love Waitrose.

I have analar sodium chloride at work us chemists think the purer the chemical the better, why would you want salt contaminated with other things!

o be fair to the OP, I have some of that posh Cornish sea salt that you can buy in Tesco and it's much nicer than table salt; sort of sweet and less bitter.

Exactly! It has more of a depth of flavour and has some important nutrients in it. I think I know the one you mean, they do a version with seaweed and its so good on a green salad.

I don't honestly believe s that someone can't tell the difference between pink h s and TS?!

I have never had to

I have a big garish tub of Saxo in the cupboard. That is about it, it is salt....

if salt doesn't just taste of salt, then it is contaminated with something that is not salt, so that gullible people will pay more for it.

That's as ignorant as saying red wine is red wine, so I might as well stock up on the 60 cents 1l cartons in Spain.

I have:

table salt
garlic salt
black salt (Kala Namak)
sea salt

I feel a bit deprived at only having 4 types

mmmm "powered by God's medicine" is the tagline

no - I'll stick to salt is salt, a flavour enhancer - not a flavour in itself thanks.

I have table salt,
Maldon sea salt
Sea salt crystals in a grinder (Aldi!)
lo-salt (for when my dad visits)

I feel deprived on the salt front and am going to add to my collection this weekend.

The ones I use the most are: Maldon for cooking, Aldi sea salt grinder for adding to cooked food and quite a lot of the time for cooking too.

I cannot imagine cooking without salt and there are some foods I just would not contemplate eating if there was no salt - chips, tomatoes, eggs, avacados, a sprinkle on the outside of a toasted ham and cheese sandwich...roast potatoes, chicken....I am sure there are loads more!

Only sort of salts in this house are those bath salts for when my sciatica plays up. Tastes like absolute shite on your supper though. Poor effort, Radox.

I'm definitely adding Peri-Peri salt to my shopping list < feels oddly excited - needs to get a life >

We have only five types
Table salt (for chips for me and playdoh) maldon, organic rock salt (which I bought by accident as an alternative to maldon) dishwasher salt and a bag of salt in the garage for snowy emergencies.
Sorry
Nothing tastes as good as table salt with malt vinegar on chip shop chips.
So yabu

recognising it is Friday night...

but anyone who thinks salt is 'pure sodium' really did waste their time at school. Shame on you.

maras2 did you not see the Barefoot Contessa when she did a different types of salt tutorial? She was in salt heaven.

my dishwasher doesn't take salt

celery salt is v nice on potato salad.

and one for you

and I don't know where your table salt comes from, but mine is British -

"Pure dried vacuum salt is another name for very pure, fine-textured rock salt. It's widely used in the food industry and available for domestic use as Saxa table salt. It's a British product (mined in Cheshire) and cheap"

this cheap Cheshire rock salt was laid down 220 million years ago...

modern sea water evaporated salts - such as the grey French Celtic salt are subject to the modern pollutants that we produce, PCBs, organo-phosphates etc...... these are present in all coastal waters.

I'll still stick with the Saxa.

Cheshire as if that's and something being cheap is good...

Salt I just had in my soup is from my personal visit to Salinasde Maras in Peru.

cut out all salt op, from everything that way you will not be back bothering the rest of us.

What do they leave in dishwasher salt, organic rock salt and expensive culinary salt? I don't fancy scraping the water softener salt on my food. Salt is salt, and it salts whatever you put it in.

ahhhh sorry, didn't realise we were just being snobby - about salt....

I try to buy British, when there is a British manufacturer, I support our own economy, and keep the food-miles down - it is cheap and it is local and it costs the environment much less - that is not a bad thing

My expensive taste in salt suports the economy a lot more than you buying dirt cheap salt with the vat and profit the retailer makes.

How do YOU know???
