To blanch something - you bring the water to the boil, add salt and taste the water, when it tastes like sea water, it's right.
Last night, I had pasta in. I neglected the process and just dumped some salt in.
I oversalted my pasta so bad it was "nearly" unpalatable.
Go slow, slow is smooth and smooth is fast.
I am slowly learning (after over salting loads and loads of stuff) that you should never neglect the basics in cooking - like "taste taste taste"
