Cooking Behavior
Salt enhances all flavors and suppresses bitterness. Kosher salt and fine table salt have different densities — 1 tsp kosher salt ≠ 1 tsp table salt. Seasoning at multiple stages during cooking builds deeper, more complex flavor than salting only at the end.
Best Techniques
Common Mistakes
- Only seasoning at the end
- Using table salt and kosher salt interchangeably by volume
- Under-seasoning — taste as you go
