Salted apples????? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 96/100. book1962 (14669)   ranked 3 out of 2,901 in fruit2 years ago

hi my friends in Mylot,

In some discussions about food I read that many of our friends in the US sprinkle a little salt on apples when eating.
I never heard of this before. So please tell me what salting an apple is good for, mainly as we are recommended to use fewer salt to improve our eating habits.
Thanks a lot. Have a wonderful day.

Yup.. I sometimes put a little salt on my apples especially if I'm eating green apples. Yum yum. It somehow neutralizes the tartness of the apple and also enhances the sweetness as well. Heheh. happy

yes rosedust I sprinkle salt on my apples for the same reason. Have a wonderful day and enjoy mylotting.

O I never heard about that but I would be curious to try it.
I remember when I was a kid here in France I used to eat this kind of chips made with apples,
It was salty and good


myLot reputation of 96/100. book1962 (14669)   ranked 3 out of 2,901 in fruit  1 year ago

I was curious as well when I tried it the first time but the apple really tasted better with a bit of salt on it.
Have a wonderful day and thanks for your answer

Heyya book! I've never seen the apple salted but my granfather used to salt his watermelon. I personally don't salt fruit but when I questioned him,he said it made it sweeter. I didn't like salt as a child but over time I aquired a taste for it and now I like a dash here and there. It definately has it's downfalls but I think a little used in moderation is ok.


myLot reputation of 96/100. book1962 (14669)   ranked 3 out of 2,901 in fruit  1 year ago

Hi Jen I also use salt in moderation only and dont salt the apples everytime I eat them. Watching blood pressure is important to stay healthy.

Goodness. What alot of things people add salt to for flavour! Most of which I would never have thought of doing!
I have never really added salt to may foods for flavour as I am not a fan of salty things. But out of curiosity I may try a few of these ideas just so I can see wether I like it or not.


myLot reputation of 96/100. book1962 (14669)   ranked 3 out of 2,901 in fruit  1 year ago

hi mummyofthree when I heard about it first I was sceptical as well and then I tried it and was hooked.

I don't know if I have responded to this before so please I do apologize if by chance I have. I know it's very easy to accidentally re respond to something. I myself have never salted an apple as I think that it would not taste good. However, I have salted raw potatoes to make them more scrumptious, the same goes for peppering potatoes. I've used peanut butter with apples before though!

Have a wonderful day.

apples with peanut butter is great too. Have a super day.

salting apples?! WOW now there's a new one for me LOL
i've never heard of that before...i like apples a lot and i can't even imagine putting salt on the apple being good, but hey! to each his own right?


myLot reputation of 96/100. book1962 (14669)   ranked 3 out of 2,901 in fruit  10 months ago

that was my first idea when I heard from mylot friends from US they salt apples but then I tried it and found the apple tasting even better. So now I do that now and then, watching my blood pressure thats a rare treat for me.

It's just a matter of taste. I don't put salt on my apple. I have never heard of anyone doing that and I am in the US.

Sounds gross.


myLot reputation of 96/100. book1962 (14669)   ranked 3 out of 2,901 in fruit  10 months ago

I don't put salt in my apples but I've tried other stuff with it:P I don't really know the english name of the Filipino sauce that we have so I just won't mention it. Doesn't sound like it's healthier when you alter a fruit, they're usually in their healthiest form when fresh:)

Thanks for the response on my discussion!

hi oyenkai, cause of blood pressure I try to limit my salt intake so I rarely have that treat of a salted apple.
have a wonderful day.

People use a little salt of the pieces of apple to change the taste of them. But in our country we have tradition to cook the apples. A fruit we call Battang in our regional language and we also call it Peshawari Apples. we eat them after cooking with beef and such other eating stuff.


myLot reputation of 96/100. book1962 (14669)   ranked 3 out of 2,901 in fruit  10 months ago

interesting to read that you eat cooked apples with beef. sure tastes good if you like sweet and spicy items in a dish all at once mixed together.
