Why you Should Add Salt to Fruit
Have you ever tried salt on fruit?!?!?! You may or may not be THAT obsessed with salt… but there's a deeper purpose for doing so!
Did you know adding salt can:
-
Take the edge off bitterness
Salt can tone down any bitter notes in fruit, especially if it’s not super ripe. It kind of smooths things out so the fruit tastes better overall. -
Make the sweetness pop
By cutting the bitterness, salt lets the fruit’s natural sweetness shine through more. It can actually make the fruit taste sweeter and more flavorful. -
Juicier vibes
Salt can pull a little moisture to the surface of the fruit, which can make it feel juicier and more refreshing when you bite into it. -
Wake up your taste buds
Some research says salt might mess with your taste receptors in a good way — helping trigger the ones that pick up on sweetness.
