Alright so I used full salt beef broth instead of no salt by accident in my beef stew and it's quite a bit too salty. I'm serving with mash so that should help but it's still too salty. Any way to salvage this?

add water. salt will diffuse into the water then you can remove it and discard

What? How do you remove the water? It'll be mixed in with the stock?
>inb4 reduce it
The stock will be just as salty as before.

pour a litre of oil into the stew which will displace the water. then tilt the pan and hold a ladle against the inner side to pour out the displaced water.

Get a large potatoe cut it up into quarters and throw that in on a low simmer. The potato will absorb any extra salt

Sponges don't absorb salt. They absorb liquids. Liquid sodium is very dangerous.

Christ almighty. Add sugar and vinegar to balance out the flavors.

make a second batch completely without salt then combine the two

I wouldn't add sugar, it would be a bad balance...vinegar and potatoes or rice would do the job.

That also removes all the flavor, genius

Sugar is the opposite of salt and salt is the opposite of vinegar and vinegar is the opposite of salt + sugar.

Add more water, another potato, and some parsley

>>14075205
Aside from adding the potato inside the stew like the other anons are suggesting, you could serve the mash with absolutely no salt and it would balance out in the mouth. That's what I do when something comes out salty for me

>> No.14080927

>>14078090
then add more salt retard
