Abstract

The article from Atlantic Monthly discusses the rise in popularity of kosher salt in cooking over the past decade. Chefs and home cooks alike have embraced kosher salt for its ease of use and texture, despite its higher cost compared to table salt. However, the article also highlights the potential health implications of using kosher salt, as it does not contain iodine, which is essential for thyroid function. The author suggests that cooks should consider using different types of salt for different purposes and be mindful of their iodine intake. [Extracted from the article]
