Your last video prompted me to look at your recipes. I checked out the pickled onions and a few others. I am curious. I see kosher salt in recipes. I use sea salt usually, is there a difference in cooking?
I guess I could ask the cooking channels I follow, but I thought of it now.
Hi Jim, great question! It really depends on the sea salt you are using. Here are the main differences between kosher salt and sea salt in cooking:
•Texture: Kosher salt has larger, coarser flakes, making it easy to pinch and control when seasoning. Sea salt can vary in texture, from fine to coarse. (I love coarse sea salt for finishing dishes.)
•Flavor: Sea salt is derived from evaporated seawater and often contains trace minerals that can add subtle flavors, while kosher salt has more of a clean, straightforward saltiness.
•Measurement: Because kosher salt has larger flakes, it takes up more space by volume. If a recipe calls for kosher salt and you’re using sea salt, you may need to adjust the amount—finer sea salt can be saltier per teaspoon.
•Usage: Both can be used interchangeably, but it’s good to be mindful of taste and measurement adjustments, depending on the sea salt you are using.
I’m so glad you checked out my recipes, and I hope you enjoy the pickled onions! Let me know if you try them.
