2.Added sugar to neutralize: An appropriate amount of sugar can neutralize the salty taste. It is recommended to add 5-10 grams of white sugar for every 500 grams of salty filling, stir evenly and then taste and adjust.
3.Use starchy foods: Ingredients with high starch content such as potatoes and vermicelli can absorb part of the salt. Mash the steamed potatoes and mix them into the filling for great results.
