Corrections

At saltfatheat, we correct errors rather than delete them. When a substantive correction is made to an article, a note is added at the foot of the page stating what was amended and the date of the change. This ensures the record of our content is transparent and allows readers to see the evolution of a page. Minor typographical errors or grammatical fixes that do not alter the factual content or instructional meaning of a piece are made without such a note.

A substantive correction is one that changes a core fact, instruction, or explanation central to the dish or technique described. This includes errors in quantities, temperatures, timings, processes, or definitive statements about ingredients or equipment. The correction note will clearly summarise the nature of the error and the accurate information that now stands.

Readers can report a suspected error by contacting us. To allow for efficient verification, please provide the full article address and quote the exact claim you believe to be incorrect. We will investigate all such reports against our source materials and expert references. Our aim is to complete this review and implement any necessary correction within five working days.

For reference pages, such as those detailing an ingredient or a technique, facts are also updated when the world changes. This occurs not due to an initial error, but because of new, widely accepted research, a shift in consensus among specialist authorities, or the availability of significantly different products. In these cases, the article is updated and a note is typically added to indicate the update reflects a change in context or understanding.

This corrections policy applies to all sections of saltfatheat, from Dishes and Techniques to News and Festivals. Our commitment is to provide reliable, useful content for cooks across Asia, and correcting errors openly is fundamental to that aim.
