About the salt, we use kosher salt, it has about a quarter of the sodium content of other salts. We grind it with our mortar and pestal.
When I cook I don't use salt at all, natural foods have their own salts. If a recipe calls for it I use only a smidgen of what is called for. I realize that baking is a totally different animal, and leave that happy culinary chore to the one who knows how to do so.
Then for x-mas we got some salts of the world, all sea salts and all with their own healthy properties, such as a Hawaiian sea salt that has charcoal as a binder. It's called Hiwa Kai from www.artisansalt.com

On a positive note, I've lost 6 lbs
