The Complete Book of Salt Block Cooking: Cook Everything You Love with a Himalayan Salt Block Kindle Edition

I saw a salt block for sale at one of my favorite stores and couldn't resist purchasing it. Once purchased I didn't really know what to do with it other than cooking steaks. I'm so glad I found this cookbook. It has some great recipes for using the salt block that you wouldn't normally think of, like olive oil tortillas or blackened catfish, as well as a lot of recipes that don't include using the salt block, like an amazing sea bass ceviche. I'm contemplating buying a salt block for my daughter and her boyfriend as a home-warming gift. They're also gonna need this book to go along with it.Disclaimer: I received this product on a promotional discount for my honest review and they are 100% my own opinions.

Using thick slabs of Himalayan salt to cook on, cure foods, and serve on is a relatively new technique that promises to impart complex unique flavor to your food. The Complete Book of Salt Block Cooking by Chef Ryan Childs tells you a bit about the science behind cooking on a block of salt, what to look for when shopping for a salt block, where to buy one, how to cook on one, and how to care for one.The book also contains over 100 recipes for appetizers, vegetables, chilled foods, drinks, main entrees, desserts and more. Although many of the recipes are interesting, none are complicated to make and most of the ingredients are readily available from your local the grocery store. Even if you never actually decide to try cooking on a salt block there are recipes that are worthwhile in this book.The book fell short of providing enough information about the benefits of salt block cooking to convince me that it would be worthwhile to spend a lot of extra time heating up a salt block, dealing with dripping juices on a flat surface, or moving a hot heavy object from stove to oven, but If you're already sold on the idea of cooking or serving on salt blocks, this book gives you all the information you'll need to get started.I received this product at a discounted rate in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

Having bought a salt block for an insanely low price we purchased this book so that we could use our block correctly. We learned how to correctly season the block, pre heat it, and care for it. Also learned they can explode if not pre heated correctly. I am very glad we bought this book!

The funny thing is that when I agreed to read this book I thought it was a book on how to eat with less salt. I actually had to find a salt block to be able to try some of these recipes. I got to say that this does give food a good flavor that you haven't had. If you do decide to go with this book I would recommend the Tea-smoked duck breast. It gives you tips on how to cook it that way you avoid the grill from flaring up.... I received this product at a discounted rate in exchange for my honest and unbiased review

I just bought a salt slab and this cookbook has many recipes that are "down to earth" and that we would enjoy eating. There are also directions for caring for the slab and such. Very helpful. Bon Appetite!!

Purchased this for our son along with a salt block. He loves them both. I personally have not tried either but based on his comments I would recommend this.

I am very new to using a salt block for cooking and needed some tips and recipes on how to use it. This book was easy to understand and loaded with great recipes for all types of foods from veggies to meat to seafood. I have tried a few of the recipes and they turned out great . This is a good book for salt block users especially beginners. I did receive a discounted price for a honest unbiased review.

This is a beautiful informative cookbook that I enjoyed reading through as soon as it came in the mail. The recipes are thoughtfully curated & easy to follow. I am just waiting on my salt block arrive so I can get to work.I received this product at a discounted rate in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.
