The thing about salt

I have been reminded so many times of how salt does wonder in bringing out the flavor of other foods.

A visible dusting of coarse salt on top of this focaccia compliments the fragrant rosemary and the nutty olive oil



A more generous use of salt in the batter and a dusting of sea salt on top give these chocolate chip cookies a unique taste
However, don't put salt and yeast together when making bread dough as the salt will inhibits the working of yeast.  Mix the salt and flour together, then add them to the yeast mixture.
