What type of salt do you usually consume frequently, table salt, sea salt or another type of salt?

 

There are indeed different type of salts possible to see in shops and supermarkets. I think often people get puzzled what to buy. I prefer to buy simple table salt in supermarket and usually it is fine crystal salt. Over here you can buy salt anywhere and many buy it in supermarket, often there are a packages with approximately 250 mg and usually it is enough for a month. We normally buy salt once in two months, we do not use much salt in cooking.

 

What benefits do you know of salt?

 

Salt is necessary for our body and health, because they are responsible for Electrolytes in our body and also they are part of our blood, biological fluids even in Normal saline it is Sodium a part of physiological fluid that used for intravenous fluids. If our body has too much salt in body then we are thirsty and want to drink plenty. Another way if it is too little amount of salt that usually will cause fatigue and sleepy, tired feeling. Too low can be dangerous for the body.

 

Is it easy to find salt in supermarkets in your country? What is its price on Steem?

 

It is quite easy to find salt in any supermarket around in UK, also the price if them is relatively cheap. The price is £1.90 for a 1.5kg and it is 8.92 Steem per 1,5kg of salt.

 

Do you have any special way of storing salt to preserve its properties?

 

I usually store majority of salt in a glass jar and close the lid of the jar tight so that there is not humidity and also I keep it on shelf in dark space at least I hope that it will help. I remember that once my salt when it was in paper package because slightly wet, I just put it on plate and on windowsill, on sunny days it usually takes about 3-4 hours and salt is very dry.

 

What trick do you use to correct excess salt in a meal?

 

I usually then wrap some rice in gauze and let it in soups for 10 min. Usually rise will uptake the excess of salt and it is not too salty after
