This recipie was good, but turned out very salty! Any suggestions for where to cut the salt?
Hi Libby, if a recipe has too much seasoning for you, just cut back. Remember recipes are there as a guide, but your taste buds may be different from others, go with the main steps and play with the rest until it is just perfect for you :O) thank you for stopping by
