/ck/ - Food & Cooking

I grew up in a household without salt. There was no salt shaker and only sometimes did my mother take a canister of Morton salt out of storage when she was baking something that needed salt, like pie crust.

It took me like 2 decades to accept that there was a use for salt in cooking and at the table and holy fuck does it make a difference. I remember the first time I salted the shit out of my steak before grilling and it was out of this world. I realized that the one thing that made restaurant food taste so magical was just fucking salt.

My father and step mother got mad at me today for trying to season the beef they were putting in a sauce
how can I make them realize seasoning is good?

I PUT THE SAME AMOUNT OF SALT AS THIS PIC ON MY RIBEYE AND LET IT SET FOR 24 HOURS AND USED SALT BUTTER WHY DOES IT TASTE SO SALTY NO ONE TOLD ME ABOUT THIS

>he doesnt dry brine his raw meat all at the same time while its sitting In the refrigerator waiting to be cooked

What are some tips and tricks?
