When baking or cooking something sweet, why is salt ALWAYS added? I'm not a professional baker nor a chef, so please forgive me if I don't understand this. I keep seeing videos online showing people baking or cooking desserts of various sorts. And, salt is always added to them. I just don't know why salt is added when making something sweet.
because salt is an important element in the food processing, "Salt gives the elements on the food to be more tasteful and maturity so perfect,"
I always thought salt would make sweet food taste salty, thus destroying the sweetness to them. While it could work for chocolate covered pretzels, I can't understand how it works for other sweets, like cookies, brownies, cakes, etc.
not a lot of my knowledge about salt. ... If you eat melon or watermelon, then sprinkle a little salt, and feel the difference
Try tossing a dash of salt into your beer.
Magic!
