I have only one kidney /ck/
I have to limit my sodium intake to 2.4 grams per day max
I have been doing so for quite some years, although occasionally I 'cheat' when Im too lazy to cook proper food (frozen pizzas & shit)
It basically boils down to me using no pre-made shit; no seasoning mixes, no frozen food, no microwave stuff etc.
Soooo, let's have a sodium free/reduced sodium cooking tips thread!
I'll start off with a couple of things I have 'discovered' over the years (next post)
Any other anons like me?

Don't eat salt
Don't eat things containing salt
fuck off
First thing is the most basic one:
I just use 0 salt when I cook. This works for pretty much the most dishes I cook. I've gotten used to tasting little to no salt, but sometimes you really do miss it, like soups or sauces. In that case, an ingredient which almost always fixes the problem is dried and crushed celery, or bay leaf. Mostly works with soups/sauces. If that somehow doesn't fit the dish or whatever, spice that shit up with whatever kind of peper you have lying around. But that is kind of my plan B, since too much pepper may ruin certain dishes.
Second, I have some low-salt substitutes for usually high-salt products, like soy sauce or seasoning mixes. These usually work pretty neatly when seasoning ground beef or something similar.
