Jul 18, 2022 at 1:30 comment added fyrepenguin I recently made a tikka masala and forgot the salt in the marinade (which is actually the main source of salt in my recipe how I make it at least). Definitely tasted “flat” or “meh”, and when I added just a little bit of salt when reheating it, it was suddenly back to what I usually expect from that recipe. This was probably the most stark example for me of how salt can make or break a dish (growing up we didn’t use salt too much, so I’m used to things not having much salt, but this was seriously noticeable)
Jul 17, 2022 at 17:36 comment added Tetsujin This makes sense. I was going to say similar, but decided not to face the indignant wave of the "I never put additional salt in my food, it's bad for you" fraternity. I just didn't need the hassle. ;)
