Salted vs. Unsalted Butter

By Jeanne (Guest Post)

When using unsalted butter in cookie recipes, do you add the salt that is called for in the recipe?

When watching your sodium intake, you should really read those nutrition labels for canned soups!! They're loaded. Also, unless a can of veggies states "unsalted" or "no salt added", you can rinse them in a colander with water before preparing them.

Use unsalted butter for baking cookies. Salted butter can cause them to stick to the baking sheet.

Some recipes assume you will use salted butter. If you use unsalted you may have to add a little. I ruined a batch of rolls this way! They tasted odd with no salt at all.

I use only sweet cream butter (unsalted),eeeekkk who wants salt on their toast? Also, watch your intake when using ketchup, lots of sodium there/
