There have been wars fought over this basic of all elements. For most of my life Salt is the cheapest of the seasonings, the most accessible and the most used. Salt was Salt. Well folks, things have changed. We recently were catering in Savannah, Ga. for a wedding that will be shown on Bravo TV in a new series that will be debuting in a few months and we ran across The Salt Table. I had no idea that there are so many salts available. I mean like every shape and color imaginable from every country you could think of, many different flavors and many with very specific uses. You know, like one for morning coffee to reduce the bitterness or another for chocolate desserts, or course ones for grilling and flake ones for quick flavor – some for more crunch and some for less. Then there are the apparatuses for serving, from graters for the salt blocks or chunks of salt rocks to salt cellars of wood, marble, glass and silver, shakers and sifters. You can even get a salt slab for heating and cooking on. You get the “pan” or grill, the heat source and seasoning all in one. Ashley had to get one of these blocks but has yet to try it out. The exciting thing is that we now have found these salts and have them available for Epting Events catered parties. We had a wedding a couple of weeks ago, the colors being black and white and the specialty drink was a Margarita. It was killer with Black Lava salt around the rim! ……………LEE
