Multiple dietary restrictions (on top of other factors) can really suck sometimes. I'm stalling out on making myself some food right now because even though I'm hungry, I don't have a huge variety of options and I'm getting tired of the same old same old. But even more, there are things I just miss.

Made my first #lowsodium hot dish/casserole yesterday. I think even #minnesotans would’ve said, wow, that’s bland. Good think my new spice blends arrived yesterday to salvage my next culinary attempts.

@MylesRyden #Salt is a very effective taste enhancer, that's one reason why it is used so much. But there are alternatives. Firstly, all kinds of #herbs and #spices. For my #bread, I replace a big part of the salt by dried #ginger, making awesome bread.
Simpler is to use #lowsodium salt, where 2/3 or the NaCl is replaced byKCl. I don't know in which part of the world you are, but #LoSalt and #JoZo have it, but also others have low-sodium salt.
Added benefit is that you increase your potassium.

I did a search on the hashtag #lowsodium and it returned zero results. So I am putting one here.

I was advised to go on a low sodium diet after I had a (hopefully minor) heart issue at the beginning of the year.

Somewhat ironically, previous to that I had discovered cooking videos on YouTube and found out that salt is pretty much the key to all flavors and it really did improve my home cooking. So now I have to start all over again. So I guess if I get any feedback I'll post occasionally.

It's sociologically difficult to forgo eating when everyone else gets food. #LowSodium #stx2023

昨日の晩御飯。御飯🍚と味噌汁、ミネストローネ。コンソメと豚肉が余っていたので作りました。減塩コンソメなので一応健康的です。

Yesterday's dinner. Rice🍚, miso soup, and minestrone. I had leftover consommé and pork, so I made this. It's a low-sodium consommé, so it's healthy.
