Effects on Your Baking

Table salt may have a slightly sharper, more metallic taste due to iodine and anti-caking additives. In most baked goods, this difference is unnoticeable. Where it matters most is as a finishing salt (on top of cookies or pretzels), where kosher salt's clean flavor is preferred.
