Kosher Salt

Kosher salt is a coarse-grained salt commonly used in cooking and koshering meats. Its larger flakes dissolve easily, providing even seasoning without clumping.

Notes

Because of its coarse texture, kosher salt is often preferred for hand seasoning meats and vegetables. Use by volume may differ from table salt due to its larger crystals.

Uses

Seasoning meats and vegetables
Bringing out flavors in soups and stews
Brining poultry and pork
Enhancing the taste of homemade bread
Seasoning grilled dishes
Making salt crusts for roasting fish

Replacements

Sea salt
Table salt (use less due to finer grains)
Himalayan pink salt
Flaky finishing salt (for texture)
Pickling salt (for brining without additives)
