I MSG-Blasted My Steak and ate it!

We all know MSG is a flavor enhancer but I always wanted to push the boundaries and see how much better it actually be. Well today is that day!

Sodium causing the saltiness in salt is a misconception that is caused by the medical condition of having high sodium which comes from eating salt. However the saltiness is caused by the Chloride in Sodium Chloride, that's why low Sodium salt replacement exists. That's Potassium Chloride.

[@NixTheMouse]

No not really Neither the Sodium nor the Chloride themselves make something salty Sodium chloride is the Sodium salt of Hydrochloric acid. There is a great video by Explosions & Fire about tasting different Alkali metal chlorides, only Sodoum and Potassium chloride taste really "salty", Lithium chloride tastes kinda salty ut in a super different way, Caesium and Rubidium chlorides taste very bad, whereas ceasium chloride is highly toxic

[@rouvdemon5792]

its common knowledge that any compound of metal and non metal element bond taste salty ,

[@y33t23]

@@NixTheMouse sodium chloride being the sodium salt of hydrochloric acid is in no way relevant for this. It's just random chemical knowledge being throwing around. Calcium Carbonate being the Calcium salt of carbonic acid doesn't make it more than lime either.

[@y33t23]

@@rouvdemon5792 You ever eaten chalk? You just randomly gave the chemical definition of what is a salt. Wouldn't try eating Sodium Azide if I were you.

[@yololinsken3045]

If that were true stomach acid should taste very salty as it is roughly 0.1 M hydrochloric acid solution and in water it fully dissociates into chloride anions and protons.

[@jjj6854]

This makes so much sense! I started cooking steaks recently and used MSG in place of salt and noticed my steak was lacking in flavor. Watching this video definitely explained why! I'll be using a 50/50 mix of salt and MSG when I make steaks from now on!

[@M98747]

I use 25% MSG and 75% salt. In my experience, more MSG is just too much, but you can test it.

[@TheOriginalArchie]

I'm 50 and grew up in NYC. Chinese food was a go to for us. I remember around 1994, when I moved to California, that MSG was CANCELLED. All of the Chinese spots had a sigh on their store front that said "NO MSG USED". I'm so glad that it's come back under the radar, because for at least a decade Chinese American food never tasted the same. Kind of like how McDonalds fries were amazing in the 90's, until they changed to peanut oils and omitted the salt. They have never tasted the same to me. Chinese food though, has come back full flavor.
