So, I went to look up the information, searched and found a book about salt, and its name was Comic Book: The Origin of Everything-Salt.
The book talks about salt as the king of all tastes, where it comes from, how it was discovered, how it was made, how important it was in ancient times, what it can do for us, and the travel notes of salt treasures.
? What I want to know most is why salt is the king of all tastes. Humans have long discovered that salt can prevent corrosion, and food pickled with salt will be preserved for a long time, so the salty taste of salt is represented as safety. Salt is the king of all kinds of flavors because it can bring out all kinds of flavors.
? Do you know what foods contain natural salt? There are celery (0. 1 g salt), shrimp skin (12.8g salt) and steak (0.05g salt).
Do you know the salt content in common foods? Let me tell you about the salt in six kinds of food, and you may have all eaten it. The first food is ham sausage, which contains 2 grams of salt. The second one is potato chips. You must have eaten potato chips, but they contain a lot of salt, which is 4 grams. The third is instant noodles, which some people may eat often, but the salt content of instant noodles is 2.9 grams. The fourth is bread. I believe everyone has eaten it. Bread is usually eaten for breakfast, but do you know? Why is bread so sweet? Because bread is not so sweet, but with salt, the taste is contrasted and it feels very sweet. The fifth is Beijing roast duck, which we don't eat often, but Beijingers may eat it often, because the salt content is 2. 1 g, so the roast duck is a little salty. But the last one, guess which one? It is a specialty of China. It is long and yellow and crisp. Did you guess? It's fried dough sticks! The salt content of fried dough sticks is the same as that of ham sausage, which is 2 grams.
This is the story of the king of salt. Do you like it? I feel very interesting after reading this book, and I want to do it myself after reading it.
