“Aside from lacking any notes, this book also lacked a clear objective. It was a muddled mess of incomplete thoughts with little in the way of cohesiveness. With each flip of the page, I was forced to read short story, upon short story, with little linking each. For my tastes, there was very little in the way of technological explanations of the process of salt, from extraction to purification. How many recipes for salted seafood do I need to read?! Finally, a few pages from the end and what could have been the beginnings of a very interesting dialog; a very brief reference to the modern day interpretation of salt, and its' status as health pariah, but alas rather than finish the book with provocation, we are left with yet another recipe, one for buttered cookies.”
