My husband cooked a pot roast and it is so salty. Is there a way I can extract some of the salt?!
Answers: The roast has a good flavor in general but he used Lipton Onion Soup mix and seasoned it with seasoning salt, garlic salt and celery salt. It was so salty that I could hardly eat it. He and his mom tend to be heavy handed with the salt, but I can usually eat it. Is there any way that I could extract some of the salt from the meat? Would it ruin the meat if I sliced it up, put it in the microwave with a little water, let it cook down some, and then drain off the juices?
I think your only hope is to cut it up and make soup or stew out of the meat.
Good Luck and get rid of all of your seasonings with salt.
Use salt when you want salt.
Use celery seed
look at the ingredients on the back of your seasoning salt and buy them.
much better way to go!
Cut the roast up and with the juices and throw in a few peeled potatoes; the potatoes absorb the salt.
Hopefully, most of the salt is close to the outside. Soak it for a couple of hours in cold water to which you have added sugar. Rinse it and dry with paper towels. Taste it. If it is still too salty, repeat. If it doesn't improve by the second time, I would give-up. Get some canned or bottled beef gravy or gravy mix. Reheat the roast in the gravy.
how much salt does one pot roast need.? The soup mix would have been plenty. potato's in would absorb some salt (don't eat the pots)but I think throwing it out and starting over is the best solution The micro would turn meat to shoe leather.
