Best Salt source?

Hey Jordan, I’m curious what type of salt you recommend for cooking? I currently use Real Salt, but am curious if you recommend iodized salt due to the potential benefits of the iodine, or if you have a preference in sea salt vs mined salt, etc.

Thanks

I don’t recommend any specific type of salt for cooking, as there are different applications for different types of salts with respect to texture, taste, etc. For example, you may want to finish a seared piece of meat with a salt that’s larger than what you would use in a baking recipe.

In any case, my go-to salt recommendation is the standard iodized kosher salt. I don’t think any of the speciality salts are better, save for subjective taste preferences.
