“There are some things, after all, that Sally Owens knows for certain: Always throw spilled salt over your left shoulder. Keep rosemary by your garden gate. Add pepper to your mashed potatoes. Plant roses and lavender, for luck. Fall in love whenever you can.”

“Everybody has a little bit of the sun and moon in them. Everybody has a little bit of man, woman, and animal in them. Darks and lights in them. Everyone is part of a connected cosmic system. Part earth and sea, wind and fire, with some salt and dust swimming in them. We have a universe within ourselves that mimics the universe outside. None of us are just black or white, or never wrong and always right. No one. No one exists without polarities. Everybody has good and bad forces working with them, against them, and within them.
PART SUN AND MOON by Suzy Kassem”

Yet still your hair foams violet as a lilac tree
From which a small wood-owl calls.”

“Pearl saltbush
Meaning: My hidden worth
Maireana sedifolia | South Australia and Northern Territory
Common in deserts and salty environments, this low shrub creates a fascinating ecosystem of almost hidden treasures: geckoes, fairy wrens, fungi and lichen colonies. Drought-tolerant, with silvery grey evergreen foliage that forms a dense groundcover that is fire-retardant.”

“Baking with a salt crust!
Salt is mixed with egg whites and then spread over the top of the dish to form a thick crust.
This ensures no moisture escapes during baking, keeping the goodness of the ingredients concentrated inside.
It's said that centuries ago, when Shogun Hideyoshi Toyotomi was deployed on maneuvers, he'd cover his fish in a salt crust to prevent it from rotting.
Because of the insulating wall of salt, the dish is heated gently and evenly while in the oven...
... its juiciness and deliciousness slowly growing within its protective shell.
The dish is considered complete...
... when you crack open the now golden-brown salt crust.”

“I reached inside the bag. It was a small jar of grayish-red crystals. "Is this..."
"I had a friend pick it up for me in New York."
"Come in. I want to take a closer look at this stuff."
I made a beeline for the kitchen, and Nico followed behind. Under the bright kitchen lights, I examined the contents of the jar. Inside there was Amethyst Bamboo Salt, one of the rarest, most expensive salts in the world. The crystals were shaped irregularly and smelled both sweet and smoky, like a campfire for s'mores.”

“I looked expectantly to the window but there were no plates lined up. Instead Scott, the young, tattooed sous chef, passed me a sliver of tomato. The insides were tie-dyed pink and red.
"A Marvel-Striped from Blooming Hills Farm," he said, as if I had asked him a question.
I cupped it while it dripped. He pinched up flakes of sea salt from a plastic tub and flicked it on the slice.
"When they're like this don't fuck with them. Just a little salt."
"Wow," I said. And I meant it. I had never thought of a tomato as a fruit----the ones I had known were mostly white in the center and rock hard. But this was so luscious, so tart I thought it victorious. So----some tomatoes tasted like water, and some tasted like summer lightning.”

“This is the skin and fat of the salmon's stomach!"
"The skin is crisp, and when you bite on it the sweet fat comes seeping out..."
"A long time ago, there was a lord of a large clan in the Hokuriku area who just loved to eat salmon.
That lord especially liked to eat salmon skin, but salmon skin is very thin. Even if you had all the skin of a salmon, it still didn't satisfy him.
So one day he said, if there was a salmon with a skin that was one foot thick, he'd be willing to exchange it with ten square miles of land...
That is how good the skin of a salmon is. And the meat of a salmon with a lot of fat in it is exceptionally good too. This dish has grilled just those two best parts of it.
First, you cut off the dark meat from the belly meat. Then you sprinkle salt onto the skin and the meat and refrigerate for two to three hours. After that, you grill it over charcoal.
Being careful not to tear the skin, you roll the skin around the belly meat and pin it with a toothpick; this one is the salted one.
On the other hand, this one hasn't been salted; instead, it's been marinated in soy sauce and sake overnight."
"Hmm... he used the best part of a salmon and grilled it with salt or with teriyaki sauce."
"You can't really call this a proper dish at first glance, but its flavor is definitely supreme!”
