    There’s this ancient Roman clay pot roast:

    • Fill 1/3 with salt
    • Add roast
    • Fill the other 2/3, add lid
    • roast it
    • drizzle honey over the slices

    It’s tasty, has a nice crust.

    Edit: removed my wrong guess.

      Salt is one of the oldest commodities. It has no shelf life and can be gathered at the edge of the ocean or dried lake, like a salt flat.

      Romans were the ones to create the term salary and salt was a commodity due to it’s use in preserving food.
