Why Store Salt?

[@ostekuste3646]

My grandfather had wooden troughs full of kosher Morton’s salt in his smokehouse. He would bury whole ham hocks in it for a period of time to draw out moisture, pull them out and pack more clean salt and black pepper on them. Then he wrapped them in old burlap seed or feed bags and hung them from iron hooks to smoke them. The memory of being sent out to the smokehouse with a knife and plate to cut a slab of ham for the family dinner still brings back those smells, something few now know.

[@RoseRedHomestead]

Thanks for letting us know about your family experience with the smokehouse. Jim

[@bondee5865]

Hi 🙋🏼, it's good to hear about the tried and proven ways of cooking that your family had. My husband's family had a smoke house when he was growing up too. We're going to try preparing meat this same way; but use a smaller type smoker

[@kathymc234]

Oste, that sounds delightful.

[@ldahl04]

​@@RoseRedHomestead just learning alot from you. So educational. Turning 65 end of month. I trust to follow all Your advice. ❤

[@sherryland9327]

I was wondering what they used before this so called "curing pink salt"

[@danniemcdonald4903]

Growing up, I remember my grandmother always put a couple of grains of rice in the saltshaker sitting on the kitchen table. She said it kept the salt from clumping (hot humid Mississippi). I still do that.

[@kaesmomFitz]

Growing up near the ocean, we always did this too. I think to this day my mother STILL has rice in her salt shaker, and she's nowhere near the beach any more! :)

[@vikkisoderquist6013]

I do that as well!

[@shannonadams3101]

We do that in NC too. Even though we have A/C and clumping salt is no longer an issue, like it was at my Granny's house, it's just 2nd nature to do it!

[@dustcloudfeatherstone8195]

Yes. We did it in Indiana too, up near the lake. Can't remember how old I was before I ever asked why there was rice in salt shakers everywhere. Even restaurants!

[@igitahimsa5871]

I added raw rice into my Salt Shaker in S FL for many years bec of the humidity. Once I forgot and emptied the salt shaker into the mashed potatoes by accident :-). We and our dinner guest had crunchy mashed potatoes that night :-)..

[@C2yourself]

I started packing a 2lb container of salt in my 5 gallon buckets on top of mylar bag full of beans, rice & oats. 10-20 years from now whomever opens the buckets will have the salt readily available

[@ruthferguson7438]

Are you sure that was your plan?

[@ruthferguson7438]

I have such pain in back of neck my doctor calls it whip lash.

[@cmont5636]

I was thinking about doing the same thing!

[@briangarman4379]

I store my salt in mason jars with the plastic canning lid. Don’t use metal because the salt will destroy it.

[@girgriffin4902]

The plastic lids are also good for balsamic vinegar. I bought some in quart jars, with a regular metal lid, at a local farm store and when I went to use it, it took a while to get it off because it had rusted so bad. Btw, peanut butter jar lids, mayo lids and parmesan shaker lids all fit beautifully on a regular mouth canning jar, for any non canning storage uses. So if you make your own spice blends or want to have a shaker of diatomaceous earth handy to sprinkle in the garden, you've got a great little container to do it.

[@charmc4152]

I use the lid from a Kraft Romano Asiago cheese blend container on a squatty little 8 oz Ball canning jar to keep baking soda by my kitchen sink. I love that I can just easily shake out some baking soda onto a pan with stuck on baked or sticky food residue. I'll have to try some of my other lids from prepared foods to see how they fit and if they make sense for cross-purposes. Great tip! Thank you!

[@reniermeyer1866]

Thank you, Jim and Pam, for being the salt of the earth. Through your kind and caring instruction, I have learned Slso mutch over the last year and a half..

[@girgriffin4902]

My parents always had a few grains of rice in our salt shakers to absorb moisture. For bigger containers, they'd put some rice in a pouch of tulle and tie it with a ribbon or thread. It worked like a champ.

[@KHX274]

So glad you covered this topic. One thing to consider regarding Himalayan salt is that it might have explosives residue because of the way it is mined. Redmond salt all the way for me 🇺🇸

[@Ikyllashandra]

Im sure there are so many of us that cannot thank you enough for all your well informed instruction

[@mtnestrobin]

I found the breakdown of the many salt varieties enlightening. Especially that the minerals found in some salts exist readily our foods. The only thing left out worth mentioning regarding salt storage is, that salt (like sugar) stores better WITHOUT use of an oxygen absorber!

[@patriciamiller4412]

Yes!! Sugar becomes stone hard when an oxygen absorbors is added.

[@liliankuhn4671]

They started making iodized salt because most of the US population was severely iodine deficient, so they added it to salt for our benefit.

[@ruthbloink9095]

This is so true. The area around the Great Lakes was known for a time as the goiter belt because of the lack of iodine in fresh fish and fresh water.

[@lisawilson3833]

The Norton and other salts since pandemic do not have iodine added as less expensive.

[@helenhalford7927]

Is it true that hypothyroid people benefit from iodized salt and why does it go bas after 5 years.

[@mwahl1686]

@Helen Halford I can't speak to the first part as I'm not a medical professional, but the best by or expiration dates found specifically on iodized salt relate to the iodine; it dissipates over time. If one is depends on iodized salt for iodine intake, using it while "in date" is best.

[@reneemohr4502]

Celtic Salt from Selina’s naturally is the best due to the processing keeps the mineral in tact. Celtic salt has 82 minerals with it.

[@sandrajohnson9926]

Redmond Sea Salt is what we use now. To salt the water for pasta or hard boiled eggs, we use Morton Salt. Thanks for the education, Miss Rose. And Jimbo. A family of 3 adults in this household use about 96 ounces a year of Redmond Sea Salt.6 pounds annually, I think.

Where I live, hot salty water flows from a mountain in Maras and it is dried in salt flats on the sides of the mountains since Prehispanic times. We get Fleur and simple salt in chunks, blocks, etc. depending on the layer harvested and the person who harvests it. It has a lot of minerals. Very important to store.

She is right. Storing salt will be most important because you can use it to preserve meats and other foods and Our bodies need it.

[@MyTube4Utoo]

Salt is incredibly important and necessary, of course, but also (I believe) it's mostly taken for granted, by many. When something is ubiquitous and cheap, most people don't really give it a second thought. I bet at least 95% of the population would never think, _"I'd better have a bunch of salt stored, just in case."_ If salt was suddenly not available, or very hard to get, people would then understand exactly how valuable it is. There have been wars fought over salt. Including, but not limited to, the 'Salt War of 1482 - 84,' and the 'Salt War of 1540.' I don't see salt just no longer being available, ever, but I can easily imagine *SEVERE* disruptions in our supply chains. I expect it. I've got *LOTS* of salt stored in various containers, including sealed #10 cans, but I also just added (2) 10 - pound buckets of Redmond Real Salt to my shopping cart, and I'll be buying more. As the state of the country (and the world) keeps deteriorating, I'm stocking - up on everything I can. I've got a really bad feeling, and I learned decades ago to trust my gut instinct. Thank you for the video.

[@maryschmidt6945]

Medicinal, I thought you would touch on Epsom salt. I grew up hearing that soaking an infected area in Epsom salt/water solution would help draw out the infection. Also great for bathing in. That is another salt to talk about-bathing salts. Very popular now. Thanks for the research and info on salt.

[@RoseRedHomestead]

Yes, I grew up hearing my parents (especially from my father) talk about and use Epsom salt for the swollen ankles and arms when I got hurt playing. Jim

Epsom salt is actually not a salt, its a mineral compound of magnesium and sulfate. Definitely something to keep on hand though.

[@susantippitt8631]

For everyday use, I use picling and canning salt, but for sprinking on food, I like the taste of pink Himalayan salt. The next time I need to buy salt, I am going to buy Redmond salt. I can taste the chemical additives in table salt, so I don't use it. I have had a boc of salt solidify due to humidity, so I took it out of the box and grated it on my box grater, put it in a plastic covered bowl, and it was as good as new.

I have many salts, but one I keep in stock that most people don't consider is potassium based instead of calcium based. I have Redmond's, pink Himalayan, kosher, table salt with iodine as well as without. I don't have enough stored though. I almost bout a 50lb bag but it had the yellow prussiate of soda in it which is not good for fermenting (if I ever get around to trying it), which most store salts have, including kosher. The sea salts do not have that added, even the cheap ones. As far as the iodine in the salt, many doctors & dietitians have said it isn't enough to do much nor is it always the kind our bodies need. Go figure. Thank you Jim & Pam for all you do! Many Blessings from Deborah in West Virginia!

Pam, a few tidbits from my experience with 2 of the salts mentioned. I am a cheese maker and tried the Real Salt, from Utah, in my cheese. Disaster. Why? The minerals in it caused tiny black spots and tastes gritty. Also Morton coarse kosher salt does have an anticaking agent - yellow prussiate of soda. When I researched that, it appears to my non scientific mind that sodium ferrocyanide, even though it has 'low toxicity', is not something I care to ingest. I really appreciate your analysis of all these available types of salt. I have determined that Diamond kosher flake salt best suits my uses and will be my storage choice. I do however like a bit of finishing salt for salad and a few other uses.

You are welcome. We have not priced-out salt lately. I am sure we will see the difference the next time we buy it again. Jim
