I put butter on my potatoes too and that's definitely got salt in it. and bacon.

I'm still technically working right now.
Doing live monitoring on something that will probably break in about 30 minutes. -sigh-

there's salted butter and unsalted butter.
i use whatever i find first lol

sour cream and green onions are also fantastic on a potato.
and cheese.
never tried garlic and paprika before, but i bet it tastes good

xD I always wondered why recipes call for "unsalted butter" I'm like... but all butter is unsalted. it's just butter.

well the actual salt is to cause a chemical reaction usually to get things to rise and whatnot. like in cornstarch cookies. Maybe if it's in the butter it doesn't work?

"You've had too much of the digital love -

Baking is basically chemistry - I'm pretty sure salted butter might throw off the chemical reaction and make the baked good not as good as it could've been. BRB while I go look that up to make sure

i'm sure it's just part of the healthy drive. lower everyone's salt counts, but you still need salt to do the chemical reaction. So salted butter probably still works fine. that's my guess based on that.

"You've had too much of the digital love -

Oh! Salted butter contains more water than unsalted butter, according to a study. Aside from that, the only difference is using unsalted butter allows you to control EXACTLY how much salt is in a baked good.

yeah chemistry \o/
i didn't realize salt contributed to rising.
i always though it was just yeast for the hardcore bubbly rising XD

I'm not sure - they tested a variety of butter but only reported the unsalted American butter versus the salted American butter.

i think it's a different kind of fat/oil so they can't call it butter
