How to use salt to improve the taste and appearance of food?

Salt is a versatile ingredient that can be used to enhance the flavor and appearance of food. Here are a few simple tips on how to use salt to make your food taste better and look fresher:

• **Freeze fish in salt water to prevent it from drying out. When fish is frozen in salt water, the salt helps to draw out the moisture and prevent the fish from drying out.
• **Use salt to wash vegetables and clean them. Salt can help to remove dirt, debris, and insects from vegetables.
• **Salt can turn yellow leaves of vegetables back to green. If the leaves of spinach or other vegetables turn yellow, adding a little salt to the blanching water can help to restore their green color.
• **Salt can make tomatoes sweeter. Adding a little salt to tomatoes can help to balance the acidity and sweetness of the tomatoes.

Additional tips:

• Use kosher salt or sea salt for the best flavor.
• Don't add too much salt, as it can make food taste too salty.
• Taste your food as you cook to make sure you've added the right amount of salt.
