If you accidentally add too much salt when cooking

When you accidentally add too much salt to your food, follow these steps to help balance the taste and reduce the saltiness. Usually, when you accidentally add too much salt, housewives will immediately add more water to reduce the saltiness of the dish. However, there are many other ways to fix this problem. To reduce the salty taste of dishes, you can try other methods below.

Use vinegar or fresh lemon juice

You only need to use a small amount of rice vinegar or fresh lemon juice to neutralize the salty taste of dishes. Note, this method should not be applied to dishes with ingredients made from milk because under the influence of acid in vinegar/lemon, the milk will precipitate and the dish will change its texture and lose its delicious taste.
