  1. Looking around the kitchen the other day it occurred to me that I have a
    LOT of kinds of salt.

    iodized table salt
    Kosher salt
    Maldon sea salt
    Fleur de sel
    Trader Joe's sea salt
    Portuguese sea salt
    Hawaiian black salt
    hickory smoke salt
    celery salt
    Lawry's seasoned salt
    plus various spice mixes that contain salt

    I'm not the only one, am I?

    What do you think of the "Fleur de Sel"? Worth the price??

    If so, what do you keep it for (to use on/in)?

    Frenchy
    With half a tub of it!

    Yes, absolutely. Fleur de Del has a delicious taste--just dip a
    fingertip in, put it on your tongue, and you will see. It is used only
    as a finishing salt. Salads, vegetables, that sort of thing.
    Experiment with it.

    I only have iodized table salt, plain ol' sea salt and celery salt. Most of
    my spice blends are Penzey's salt-free. I do have some packets of stuff
    with salt, like taco seasoning mix.

    baby dills
    jumbo dills
    dill slices
    bread and butter spears
    bread and butter slices
    I could go on and on....lol!

    I've a few but not that many, I think. I also having canning salt. I
    like Penzeys Old World Seasoning -- Sheryl put me on to that one.
    Rather like Lawry's but not as salty. And I'm just about out, too.

    Also, for any Twin Citians looking at this, the Penzeys nearest me
    (Savage) is moving to Lakeville (Cedar & Cty 46) in November. Drat.
    Oh, well -- that's where the new Kowalski's store is, too, so it won't
    be just a one-stop trip.

    I don't think I have as many varieties as you. I have - pickling salt,
    iodized salt, Mediterranean sea salt, garlic salt, onion salt, celery
    salt, Lawry's seasoned salt and various spice mixes containing salt.

    Professional cooks don't use any of those wussy salts... they just lean
    over and let the sweat run off their noses into the pot. BAM!

    I only have two.

    "Real Salt" raw granulated, loaded with trace minerals and "Alessi"
    evaporated sea salt.

    All of my other seasonings are salt free. I prefer to add it in
    seperately. :-)

    Nice flavor, but I wouldn't be terribly upset if I didn't
    have it.

    Not for cooking; it gets lost. It's good sprinkled on things
    like eggs, baked potatoes, fresh tomatoes, Caprese salad,
    cottage cheese, etc.

    Nope - about right.

    Kosher salt
    Trader Joe's sea salt
    Hawaiian Salt Mix
    hickory smoke salt
    celery salt
    Lawry's seasoned salt
    plus various spice mixes that contain salt - like:
    lemon pepper
    Montreal Seasoning (2 kinds)

    Guess what... it's true. It's quite amazing what ends up in food, but
    fortunately cooking (heat) negates mostly all trangressions. It's
    mostly with uncooked foods that one needs to be concerned... beware
    that innocent looking salad... you're far safer at fast food joints
    with the burgers and fries than the salads. The safest restaurant meal
    one can buy is probably a pizza, eaten directly after 15 minutes in a
    600ºF oven.

    Yes, you're the only one. You obviously have a serious problem,
    an addiction to buying lots of different kinds of salt. Fortunately,
    there is a simple cure - just package it all up, send it to me, and I
    will make sure it's disposed of (in a non-wasteful manner), and
    you won't have to worry about it ever again. :-)

    So, you're going to "recycle" the salt for her? How very kind of you 😉
