what type of salt is better for cooking with, sea salt or kosher salt?

Answer 1

Kosher salt usually has no additives, and it has big crystals with large surface areas. This size and shape allows it to absorb more moisture than other forms of salt, and this makes kosher salt excellent for curing meats
Nutritionally speaking, kosher salt is no different than table salt, although it does not provide iodine. The human body needs salt to regulate the electrolyte balance inside and outside of its cells. But studies have shown that diets low in salt lower a person's blood pressure. As with many health issues, scientists and doctors don't universally agree on the health benefits and problems related to salt intake.

Answer 2

Sea salt is usually a "finishing salt", sprinkled on food just before eating. Heat often ruins the delicate taste. So, I guess Kosher salt is better to cook with.

Answer 3

We use kosher salt to season while cooking, sea salt to
salt pasta water and for seafood.
