I seldom add salt to ingredients I use in cooking, but that's because many of them are already salted to some extent. If you're cooking entirely from scratch, though, you've gotta have salt.
The book sounds very cool thank you. Salt does have a long and interesting history for sure. Agreed, if your ingredients are already salted then your probably good to go!

I think I listened to a summary a couple of days ago.

I love histories like this! If you come across any other big food histories, gimme a shout!
Good food for thought. I have not pondered this aspect of ingredients before. Thinking about it now, I believe I have to agree with you.
