Is seafood boil supposed to be salty?

[Ye In]

Helloo everyone! I made a seafood boil last night. My family loved it. I guess it really tasted pretty good. However, I couldn't shake the feeling that it was a tad salty. Is that just me, or is seafood boil supposed to be salty? Perhaps, I could only indulge in the low level of saltiness. Do any of you knew anything on this salty subject? Would love to hear your thoughts!

Seafood boil can be salty .. Maybe next time taste the broth before adding all the salt Lemon wedges on the side help too! But hey, if your family loved it, that's all that matters

It depends on personal preference and the seasoning used! I think a seafood boil can be salty, especially if you're using a Cajun or Old Bay seasoning blend. Though you can control the saltiness by adjusting the amount of seasoning or adding less salt during cooking.

Seafood boil can be salty due to the seasoning used, but the level of saltiness can vary depending on personal preference and the specific recipe.
