Nutritional Yeast

 

I keep hearing about Nutritional yeast to use in place of salt. Apparently it tastes a bit like Parmesan cheese. We haven't tried it yet, but I will report back.

Reporting back.. 

Matt has been a bit reluctant trying this but I have sprinkled it on quite a few things. It definitely does have a Parmesan flavour to it. The lady at the store recommended it on popcorn, which I tried and I do agree it is a very nice addition.

Kombu

 

A homeopathic nutritionist recommended Kombu seaweed to us when we first went on this diet. 

I throw it into any sauce, soup, broth that I am cooking and it adds depth and a bit of saltiness.

On the packet is says to soak in water overnight and use the liquid but I have never been organized enough to do this. I usually just throw it into the soup while it is cooking and remove before we eat.
