ooops...too much salt in my food

No matter how great we are in the kitchen, we often make the mistake of adding more salt than required to the the food unknowingly. when cooking, the best way to add salt is to add little by little. Back in the Days, My Mother taught me to pour salt into the cooking fire while we cook to avoiud having so much salt in the food. well i always do this and it simply ruins the cooker lol. i have no idea if it works or not. Sometimes, it feels like u can't taste the salt while cooking; please STOP adding more salt and allow the food to boil properly before tasting for salt again, then you will realise that the food is already tasty. In the case where you have unknowingly put more salt than required, please don't be scared, try the following ways of reducing salt from your food. These Foods includes any type of Soup Stew Rice. Sauce when any of the above food is salty: TIP1: add more water little by little and allow to boil properly. TIP2: add two slices of yam or potatoe to the food. yam is high in carb and starch and it absorbs water and releases starch thereby making it possible for the salty water from the food to be sucked into it. strange right? yeah but it works. TIP3: do not over spice your food. This does not mean that you should make the mistake of over saliting your food ooo lol. if you do not want to risk over salting your food, salt application should be done "step by step". washing vegetables with salt also increases the risk of over salting your food because the vegetable absorbs thesalted water, if in any case you wash the vegetable with salt, please be mindful of how you spice your food because this can be disastrous especially if there are people waiting to eat the food. HAVE A HAPPY COOKING!!!
