Sea Salt Vs Table Salt

[EcclesCake]

I cannot believe an article in a food/consumer programme.

Apparently sea salt is better for the table and table salt is best for boiling your spuds, etc.

Well, who'd have thunk it?

[Mamyalynne]

Tautology?

[RATTER15]

Absolutely!!

[Jackdaw33]

I've never understood the difference anyway. Salt is salt is salt.

[EcclesCake]

Wrong Jackdaw.

[Jackdaw33]

Explain then.

[-Talbot-]

I prefer ****ology, Mamya.

[scooping]

You should know EcclesCake

[Mamyalynne]

I thought you might.

[EcclesCake]

Table salt is highly refined whereas sea salt has other beneficial minerals

I'd give you a best answer Talbot but it would be self aggrandising. Although as I'm being poncy about salt I guess I am being more than a tad poncy!

[Jackdaw33]

Well, smack my bottom with a Woman's Weekly! Who'd have thunk it?

[-Talbot-]

oooh I have summat in common with Table Salt.

[DTCwordfan]

you refined?? - Pull my other leg if I have one, marsh-salt having rotted it.

[237SJ]

I do like a few microplastics with my sea salt!

[Togo]

Table salt for the water and water salt for the table. Where do I put rock salt?

Haha Twatology gets through the "refining" process. Remember. :))

[Old_Geezer]

You should take it all with a pinch of salt.

[EcclesCake]

I have to admit a certain sense of smugness that I passed the filter :-))

[Garaman]

We must be a bit poncy about salt as well as we always use sea salt and have a selection - Himalayan and Persian for sure and a couple of others. They do have distinctive flavours though I would be lying if I said I could tell you which was which.

Provencal or Solway Firth for me, followed by Cadgwith down here...it's all in the seaweeds.....
