Really? I find it's very bland, the kind of bland that can't be cured
later if I don't add salt to the boiling water. For me, it's not a
question of "if", it's a question of "how much". I don't subscribe to
the salty as the sea method. Just a few shakes (maybe 1/4 tsp at the
most) for 4-6 qts of water.
