Salt spray cellar

 A healthier reminder of the sea

We are constantly exhorted to reduce salt, which is a good idea. However, soya sauce, while not salt, is nonetheless salty and goes further than the quantity of salt it contains would in seasoning food. A solution to this would clearly be a saline one, allowing food to taste saltier than if sprinkled with grains of salt - it would be easier to taste the salt in solution than if it started off as crystals. To reduce salt consumption still further, a mechanically operated spray would make it possible to provide the minimum necessary quantity of salt, as a solution, by gently misting one's food with brine. It would also be reminiscent of the sea.
A misting salt cellar could be cleaned easily by immersion in fresh water.

       Ever lie by your window on a stormy day at the beach? Its the best salt lick ever. But its for the nose and eyes. I guess I prefer salty air over food with salty air on it. Bun.

       There is a big taste difference in unsalted butter from the salted type … with just about 100mg Sodium present per tablespoon of butter compared to 900mg Sodium present per tablespoon of soy sauce.

       I can see this in a spray bottle. Why the cellar?

       It needn't make food too soggy because something like soya sauce doesn't if added in sensible quantities, and that'd be all that's needed.
[DrCurry]LOL.
