Salt - Cooking Tips
Adding salt to water will raise the temperature at which it boils and
lower the temperature at which it freezes.
Adding salt to bread dough controls the action of the yeast and improves
the flavor. Bread made without salt will have a coarser texture and
a blander flavor than bread made with salt.
Try sprinkling salt on citrus fruit, melons, tomatoes, and even wine to
enhance flavor.
Adding a little salt balances the flavor of sweets like cakes, cookies,
and candies.
Boiling eggs in salted water makes them easier to peel.
Adding a pinch of salt (preferably non-iodized) to cream or egg whites
before they're whipped increases their volume and serves as a
stabilizer.
Salt is a mineral, so it can be stored indefinitely without going
stale. It won't taste any fresher if you grind it with a salt
mill.
Salting slices of eggplants helps draw out the bitter
juices.
Sprinkling salt on meat before broiling or grilling it draws moisture
from the center, making it browner on the outside, but less juicy on the
inside.
