This has nothing to do with food and everything to do with what the hell. 😂
Can someone PLEASE explain to me how children instinctively know when they don’t have to be up early?
School day? Dead asleep until you’re dragging them out of bed with fifteen minutes to spare.
Friday at 5:47 AM? Wide awake. Full of energy. Ready to discuss very important topics.
I have been a parent long enough to know that I will never have the answer to this question and I have made my peace with it.
Mostly.
Send coffee. Send prayers. Send literally anything.
Happy Friday everybody. 😂🌿

Salting your pasta water is not optional. 🌿

I said what I said.

We just dropped a blog post all about salt over on Real Food Real Chaos — and it felt very appropriate to follow it up with this video I've been sitting on for a while. Consider this part two.

Please also note the yard work shirt with the holes and the marker on the sleeve. This is mom life. We don't have time for a wardrobe change between the garden and the kitchen and frankly neither do you. The chef tips are still good I promise.

Your pasta water should taste like the ocean — and I mean actually salty, not "I shook the shaker twice and felt good about it." Here's why it matters:

It's the only chance you get to season the pasta from the inside out. It helps with starch gelation so your noodles stay al dente instead of turning into a gluey mess. And it reduces stickiness so your pasta actually behaves itself.

Oh and before you drain it — save a little of that starchy salty pasta water. That liquid gold can loosen a thick sauce or bring the whole dish together in a way nothing else can.

This is just one of the cooking tips inside the Well Rounded Meals cookbook — grab yours through the link in bio and stop guessing in the kitchen. 🌿

Not all salt is created equal. And once you know the difference, your food will never be the same. 🧂

Swipe through for the complete breakdown of every salt worth knowing about. What makes each one different, when to reach for it, and when to put it back on the shelf.

Spoiler: the cheap salt in the little blue cylinder is doing your cooking dirty. And flaky salt on a brownie is a non-negotiable life decision.

The full guide including a story about a boat in Italy that started this whole thing is live on the blog at wellroundedmeals.net. Link in bio.

🌿 Save this post. Your salt game is about to level up significantly.

The full guide is live on the blog at wellroundedmeals.net — and there is a little something extra in there for anyone who reads to the end. 👀

The hiccup cure your doctor never told you about.
One lemon. Bitters. Done.
The Taste Tester was skeptical. The Taste Tester is now a believer. 🌿
