Love these blogs even though I'm not baking like I used to. I just love reading about the baking and the recipes. Question: When recipes call for unsalted butter and all you have is salted, how should the salt amount called for in the recipe be changed? There is some flexiblity here. Start by cutting the salt amount in half. Elisabeth @ The Baker's Hotline LaVerle, for every 1/2 cup (1 stick) salted butter you use in place of unsalted, reduce the salt in the recipe by 1/4 teaspoon. - PJH
