I've been using sea salt for home cooking for years. It's the salt at
hand at home. I prefer the flavour which to me is more balanced than
simple table salt, which leaves a slight bitterness to me. For the
feasts I've used, I've used mostly simple table salt, primarily for the
cost and it's what most people are used to. I've encountered a number of
French recipes that prefer sea salt. I had never heard that it would
cause migraines. A good thing to know.
