Re: Cooking during Ramadan…
I dont want to change the belief system of people but tasting food (for a cook) is allowed in Ramadan. You can taste it and spit it out. Just dont swallow it (or savor the taste :D) ..
and no, you dont have to have a zalim shohar to be allowed tasting the salt. Its just that if you are cooking food and not sure if namak/mirch is ok, you can tatse (however not many does that)
