There are a few things that I need in my kitchen, it goes without saying, the Thermomix. It goes without saying, hot water (clean freak) and it goes without saying, Umami…but salt? Nay, even flavored salt? Well yes folks, you heard it here first; I now rely on the flavoured salts I have been producing en masse to liven up my cooking life. In fact I was in a hurry (funny that!) and threw a shrimp on the barbie as we supposedly do 'down' here, and with a smidgen of Olive Citrus Salt, they tasted divine, were duly impressive for the assembled crowd (who expect a lot at my house!) and I'm not just making this up…but take it all with a grain of salt if you like...
