mulvee Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 very interesting.... One thing kosher salt can't do: fit through the holes in a conventional salt shaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolarGarlic Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 We use the coarse sea salt variety for cooking around here...the stuff is absolutely amazing! Makes steak even better...highly recommended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamH Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 Have you tried the salt of salt - Fleur de Sel? It's from France, harvested from beds of seawater by hand, obscenely expensive but it tastes unlike any thing else. It's better just on it's own rather than for cooking, on asparagus with some butter for example. I tend to use sea salt because it can be used in a shaker, or anything that is better than iodized table salt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaidy Mae Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 Herbamare is a really good sea salt with dried herbs in it. There are all kinds of different varieties depending on what you are cooking (i.e. Spicy, Bombay, Regular, etc). It's some tasty stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 And don't forget: kosher salt is a significant part of a drinking game based around Alton Brown's wonderful show Good Eats. Aloha, Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigger Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 Here is a crazy plan ,Will get some Rabi to bless this , sell it for way more then people can use more volume and get less salt taste.What a brilliant scam , I worked in high end dining for years and it is always amazing how foodies can be drawn in to the flavour of the day.(no pun intended) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
