Receta Too salty? here’s the tip to fix it!

Have you ever put too much salt in a sauce, stew, soup or stock?

I did… a lot of times… and I ended up increasing the quantities of the ingredients, changing quality of the recipe, until I discovered this trick.

Put a peeled and quartered raw potato into the recipe.

During the cooking time, the potato will absorb the salt contained in your liquid or semi-liquid recipe. You can put more potatoes, to absorb a large amount of salt. Just remember to remove the potato/s at the end.

Last time, I used this method for the turkey stuffing. Oh it was so salty that I used 2 potatoes, I thought I would throw all away but at the end those tubers saved me!

So long live potatoes!
