Growing up my mother hated cooking and only did because she had a family to feed. Everything was bland and boiled. What I didn't realize until recently that a little salt and pepper could have improved these meals tremendously.
My friend, Gail, started a blog a little awhile ago. If you haven't already checked it out, I highly recommend it. http://gailshealthymenu.blogspot.com/ It is also a vegetarian blog and has some amazing recipes on it.
Gail, through her blog, taught me the importance of using salt and pepper and how much it improves the taste of our food. I had to no idea these two simple spices could add so much flavour.
We're in a society where salt is considered a bad thing due to the amount of tinned and processed foods we tend to consume. I recommend you stay away from that amount of salt, but using it for flavour in cooking will enhance your dishes a great deal. So, don't be shy...pass the salt!
