How To Reduce Over-salted Taste Without Adding Water

Anyone can reduce over-salted taste without adding water. Also, anyone can mistakenly prepare a meal containing salt above a tolerable level. One way people reduce too much salt is to add water. The essence of adding water is to dilute the salt content.

However, there are other ways too much salt in meals can be reduced. Though the addition of water is the first and primary solution that comes to mind, adding water can sometimes cause the inconvenience of having a watery or lighter meal. It is therefore handy for other means to be applied.

If you’ve accidentally oversalted your food, there are a few things you can do to try to balance out the saltiness. Here are some tips:

1. Dilute the dish: One way to reduce saltiness is to dilute the dish by adding more liquid or unseasoned ingredients. For example, you could add more broth to a soup or stew, or toss extra vegetables into a stir-fry.

2. Add acid: Acidic ingredients like lemon juice, vinegar, or tomatoes can help balance out the saltiness in a dish. Add a little at a time and taste as you go, as too much acid can make the dish sour. If you remember your acids, basis and salt topic, you would know acids react with base to form salt and water. Addition more acids to salt may try to reverse the equation.

3. Add sweetness: Sweet ingredients like sugar, honey, or fruit can also help balance out saltiness. Again, add a little at a time and taste as you go.
