Let’s Talk About Salt

There are a lot of misconceptions about salt. The goal isn’t to make your food taste salty—it’s to bring out the natural flavors that are already there. Used correctly, salt is one of the simplest ways to make a good dish even better.

One of my favorite ways to use it is a blend I make with small-batch sea salt from @newportseasalt, mixed with rosemary and thyme. It’s simple, versatile, and works beautifully on everything from steaks and chicken to roasted vegetables and potatoes.
