Abstract

This chapter deals with approaches to salt reduction in food products. Salt has a lot of roles in foods, such as microbiological stability, texture development, and taste and flavour enhancement. The chapter focuses on flavour perception, and maintaining consumer acceptance of foods with salt reductions. Some of the different approaches to salt reduction are introduced, with advantages and limitations to using the different methods, and suggestions for future approaches.
