Low-salt diet can effectively prevent hypertension. For people who are increasingly pursuing health preservation, they will consciously control the intake of salt in their diet. However, for many other people, low-salt food is too tasteless, which affects both taste and appetite. Here, introduce several methods of low salt but good taste, so that low salt and good taste do not conflict.
Put the salt last
When cooking, it is best to sprinkle the salt on the food before taking out the pot, so that the salt adheres to the surface of the food and does not penetrate into it, which can make people feel the obvious salt taste and reduce the salt consumption by nearly half.
Use sauce appropriately
Sauce and soy sauce have a certain amount of salt. When cooking meat dishes, you can add some yellow sauce appropriately and put little or no salt at the same time. In this way, the dishes not only have attractive color, but also arouse people's appetite and reduce the amount of salt used.
Use sour taste instead of salty taste
When making cold salad and salad, you can use vinegar, lemon juice, tomato and so on for seasoning, which not only reduces the amount of salt, but also makes the dishes taste better. Because some vinegars have a slightly sweet or slightly salty taste in the end, such as Duliu old vinegar produced in Jinghai District of Tianjin.
Use olive oil or sesame oil to add flavor
Proper use of olive oil and sesame oil can increase the flavor of dishes, so that even if the taste of dishes is light, it can make people appetite.
add spices to taste
as the saying goes, salt is not spicy enough to make up. Adding mustard, ginger, pepper, curry powder and other spices to dishes can enhance the taste and cover up the light taste after low salt.
Use chopped nuts and fragrant vegetables to enhance flavor
When making mixed vegetables, add some nuts such as sesame seeds, chopped walnuts and peanuts, or vegetables such as coriander and onion, which can increase flavor and make up for the lack of salt.
