Nusret Gökçe, a Turkish butcher and chef better known as 'Salt Bae,' became a global internet sensation in January 2017 after a video called 'Ottoman Steak' was posted to his Instagram. The clip showed Gökçe flamboyantly slicing a steak and then sprinkling salt over it by letting it bounce off his forearm and down his wrist. This theatrical wrist-flick gesture became a universal symbol for adding a 'special touch,' being extra, or perfecting a task with an over-the-top level of confidence and flair. The meme exploded across social media, with fans, athletes, and celebrities imitating the gesture to celebrate their own successes. It captures the essence of mastery and the performance of expertise, often used humorously to suggest that a tiny, flamboyant effort has made a massive difference. Whether it's adding one final line of CSS to fix a website or finishing a project with a 'chef's kiss' flourish, Salt Bae is the go-to GIF for celebrating your own extra-ness.
