Methods To Reduce Excess Salt In Food


A lot of people are unaware of simple methods or tricks that can be followed during the cooking period to reduce the saltiness of foods before the meals are served.

In many cases, water is usually added to foods in a bit to reduce the salt concentration but this seems not to produce the desired result. To adequate remedy over saltiness, the following trick can be adopted depending on your meal.

ADD SOME LIQUID MILK.

Instead of adding some quantity of water particularly to porridges or soups, milk solution performs and produce a better result in reducing the saltiness in the soups than water.

ADD SOME SLICES OF SWEET POTATOES

This has been helpful and people who had tried it can attest to it. Slice your potatoes into big parts, rinse them and add into a salty soup. As the potato cooks, it will help absorb the salty water or solutin of the soup there by helping in balancing the saltiness. The potatoes can be removed after they had absorbed enough salt solution.

RINSE WITH PLENTY OF WATER

For boiled rice and yam, your best is to rinse the food over and over again to reduce the salt content before serving . In the case of meat, if you would eventually be adding them to soup, you could avoid adding salt or cube seasonings to the soup. The salt in the meat might just be enough.
