Trivia
Cooking with salt is, together with using ash, clay or foil, one of the oldest and at the same time healthiest cooking methods. Did you know that back in 230 A.D. the writer Apicius in his ‘De Re Coquinaria’ talked about cooking with salt. So, a cooking method that after more than two thousand years has still not gone out of fashion, and which is still loved by everyone from housewives to Michelin starred chefs. Why? Cooking meat, fish or vegetables in salt preserves the nutritional properties of the food without having to add any fat at all. In short, loads of taste, low in fat for a top notch result.
