Question

Does it matter greatly if you use salted butter in a banna cake when it says unsalted in the cook book?

Answer 1

i think it'd taste weird oooOO

Answer 2

Not at all - I do it all the time.

Answer 3

It will be fine, just don't add any other salt to the recipe.

All I use is salted butter. I promise you will not notice any difference in the taste, nor will affect the final baked product.

Answer 4

The taste will be slightly off.

I wouldn't do it, when baking do not change the recipe. That's just the rule, LOL

If it calls for salt - just do not add it!!  

Answer 5

No it does not matter. Thisi s a minor difference. I would still add the called for amount of salt to the recipe. It will be delicious;

Answer 6

It's really not a problem, but if the recipe calls for additional salt, I would reduce the amount by at least half.

Answer 7

No. Definitely not. Just don't add any more salt. Strange as it sounds, salt actually brings out the sweetness. True story.

Answer 8

not really just use less salt in the rest of the recipe it won,t really change the flavor

Answer 9

No.  I do it all the time.  If you want to get really technical, you can cut the salt called for in the recipe by 1/4 tsp per stick of salted butter.  But I never worry about it.  We use real butter around here on our toast and what have you, so I'm not interested in trying to keep 2 types of butter separated and stocked!
