I was baking some cookies the other day, and it got me thinking… does it actually make a difference if I use sea salt vs table salt vs kosher salt? I’ve always just grabbed whatever’s closest, but I’ve seen some recipes get really specific about the type of salt. Does anyone actually notice a difference in taste or texture? Or is it just a preference thing?
When I bake cookies, I've noticed that the type of salt can actually change things a bit. Sea salt has larger crystals and can add a nice crunch and burst of flavor, while table salt is super fine and can make things a bit saltier if you use too much. Kosher salt is great for even seasoning because it’s coarser and easier to pinch. So yes, it can make a difference in taste and texture, but it often comes down to personal preference too! Have you tried using different salts in your baking?
