Thread: Uses For Salt That You May Not Have Known About

    Uses For Salt That You May Not Have Known About

    USES FOR SALT

    Perk Up Coffee Flavor
    Add a pinch of Salt to the coffee in the basket of your coffeemaker. This will improve the coffee’s flavor by helping to remove some of the acid taste. It works!

    Dispose of Disposal Odor
    To help remove odors from garbage disposals, pour 1/2 cup of Salt directly into the garbage disposal. By running the disposal following manufacturer’s directions, you’ll send those odors down the drain.

    Eliminate Fish Odors
    Removing fish odor from your hands is simple with Salt. Just rub your hands with a lemon wedge dipped in salt, then rinse with water.

    Cut Cutting Board Odors
    To help cut odors off of your wooden cutting board, simply pour a generous amount of Salt directly on the board. Rub lightly with a damp cloth. Wash in warm, sudsy water.

    Soothe Sore Throats
    To alleviate the discomfort of a mild sore throat, gargle several times daily with a mixture of 1/4 teaspoon Salt and 1/2 cup warm water. It’s like taking a liquid lozenge.

    Soak Your Feet
    To prepare a salt water bath, pour 6 quarts (1-1/2 gallons) warm water in a large basin. Mix in 1/4 cup Salt and 1/4 cup baking soda. Soak feet for up to 15 minutes.

    Peeling eggs
    Eggs boiled in salted water peel more easily.

    I put 3 shakes of cinnamon in the coffee grounds before brewing

    It works. I put maybe 4-5 grains in my cup if the coffee isn't that good (or too old/stale like at the bar...) It helps the taste some but def cuts the yucky acid flavor. Never tried adding to a full pot...our coffee at home doesn't need it.

    Yeah, I like that one myself, and I need to try it. Every once in a while, I get stupid and buy cheap coffee, instead of Folgers.
    OMG! It is all I can do, to choke that Save A Lot coffee down sometimes! And I have made that purchasing mistake more than once.
