Do you salt your food while your cooking or on your plate?

I tend to salt food whilst cooking - hubby and I have the same taste in saltiness (if you know what I mean) - we do like a lot of salt but we're both over 40 and know that too much salt is bad for you so we limit how much salt we cook with and if necessary add a touch more whilst eating:)

Wow! That is nice to find someone like us here. I meant my hubbie and I love salt. So we put a lot in the food and in our plates also. Yummy!

My husband and I both use a lot of salt! I put a bit in whilst I'm cooking, but we both use a fair bit on our plates. And we keep a salt shaker in the glovebox of the car, because if we get fish'n'chips at the beach we like to add more than they give us in the shop!

I usually only use salt on things like french fries or veggies, on my plate. I rarely add salt while cooking.
My husband will add salt his cooked food, salt in my house last a long time.

I am from south India and in dishes and curries salt and chilly power is very incredible part and we add salt while preparing our food.

I don't ever seem to add salt when I'm cooking.And on add usr salt on a few things on my plate, like tomatoes, chips and some meats.For some reason othe things I just donn't use it.

Hi char;p
I do put salt not while cooking...here's a tip...
Why don't you try putting some salt when you are just finish slicing any meat.Rub the meat with some salt so that before you cook it..it will sink in to the meat.So while you are waiting for the food to be cook..you will know if you still need to add some salt or if the taste is just right.Be it a beef,pork,chicken or fish..I make sure that I rub some iodized salt and let it sink it for few minutes before I cook it.My boyfriend actually followed my style about it.And there's another tip for chicken.I know you observe also that there's some part of the chicken which is so slimy..you get salt and rub it to remove that slimy thing on the chicken...bec. that slimy thing on the chicken is giving an allergic reaction for those people who has asthma...like me..after removing that slimy thing with salt...wash the chicken so that it will not be salty though...It's just a filipino way of cooking or cleaning the chicken as well.Have a great evening char.;p

I like salt too much like you. Probably our body needs the salt more because of more sweat. It gives high blood pressure and its bad really. But I can't help without salt.

Hi,
I normally add salt to Food while preparing it .

I rarely salt when cooking and hardly ever on the plate either. If I'm using a stock cube or something like canned beans in a recipe there's usually salt in there and no need to add more. I find a lot of food that hasn't been home cooked to be overly salty and once you stop using so much yourself your really notice it when you eat outside the home (fast food is probably the worst, often the ONLY thing I can taste is salt which is why I rarely have any).
