Hey there
I asked on another thread but thought id get a faster answer by starting this thread...
Im puzzled ....i ran out of rock salt and have to get the trout in the oven...
Normally i bake the trout in the oven totally covered up by a mountain of rock salt..but i have none..
QUESTION..May i use ICE SALT instead??
It comes in the same size bag, and it looks the same..doesnt say anything about being poisonous on the bag, but it is meant for the driveway and it melts the ice and snow...
Dangerous or okay to use???
I have no idea here...anyone know???
Thanks
Ali
Is it mineral salt? That has chemicals in it? I don't know if I would eat that crap Ali. LOL
Then again what do I know?
Taste a piece and tell me what it tastes like! LOL
Ps. My brother and my boyfriend both said NO don't eat it. Go buy some salt. Don't use the driveway salt Ali.

ali - do you have any kosher salt in the house?

Most salt for driveways contains other chemicals, not to be used for cooking. Any sea salt around?
here ya go ali - kosher salt or sea salt would be a good substitute. as co said, ice salt is used for making ice cream and is not put in the ice cream but used to melt the ice.
here's a link as to suitable salts for cooking and other uses.

I am going fishing on Monday though. So I can get some more striper rolled in corn meal with hushpuppies.

im married to an Italian and he loves his meals....what can i say?lol
Sam, i dont have any Kosher salt...and dont have any vehicle to go out to the store...
Ive baked the trout already ..
Normally i just smack the big mountain of salt and take the fish out and immediately dish it ( its all in the presentation..lol) place on top of risotto...
I havent opened it and now am thinking i shouldnt take the chance..
im going to that website first and check out the difference.
Thanks all for responding..
hawk im sorry i am wrecking your thread..i cant seem to get my pics posted this time for some reason...

Hey SP how've you been? Good to see you posting.
SP-
Hey how's things going? You doing OK?

Good thanks JD and CO, just a flying visit.
Apparently they often add Methyl-a-D-glucopyranoside to the ice, which absorbs moisture before salt. This stops the salt going rock hard and it distributes better.
