So let’s talk about recipes shall we?! Any great chef will tell you that salt is a main pillar in creating a dish, and they aren’t totally wrong. Salt has some wonderful benefits both nutritionally and flavorfully. What we suggest in this area is that you salt things minimally or not at all and let each individual add the amount they desire to their dish.
