Why do you put salt in porridge?

Have you ever wondered why you would add salt to a recipe that is supposed to be sweet? Salt is a must-have staple in all the best porridge recipes, as it adds depth to the taste of the porridge. Salt will help bring out the sweetness of any topping you choose to use in your porridge recipes. Just make sure to add the salt when the porridge is nearly finished cooking or coming to a boil. Adding the salt too early can harden the grain, and stop the oats from swelling, making your porridge less creamy.
