Gautama Siddharta said,
Let yourself be open and life will be easier. A spoon of salt in a glass of water makes the water undrinkable. A spoon of salt in a lake is almost unnoticed.
Salt. Salt is the key to good smoking, and Siddharta could have just as easily framed his analogy in terms of the salt bath for smoked meats (though it probably wouldn’t have read as well).
We added what we thought was enough salt. We did a taste-test of the water, and it seemed to be about as briny as the first time, when Dziadek, the smoking expert, was still here.
Apparently we got it wrong, for while the second batch looks good, the taste just wasn’t there.
Can that which is unsavory be eaten without salt?
or is there any taste in the white of an egg?
Apparently not.
