Can I Use Salted Butter Instead Of Unsalted For Cake
Olivia Luz
For the cake recipe i tested it as written with both unsalted and salted butter and once more omitting the 1 teaspoon salt since bakers often suggest omitting the added salt when substituting.
The problem is in control. You can use salted butter instead of unsalted butter if that s all you ve got especially if you re making something simple like cookies where the chemistry of adding salt in a specific amount and at a certain time won t terribly affect the outcome unlike bread. And if you come across a recipe that calls for unsalted butter and all you have is salted butter simply decrease the salt in the recipe by the same ratio above 1 4 teaspoon of salt per 1 2 cup of butter. Unless your recipe calls for a great deal of butter salted or unsalted won t make or break the recipe.
