Didn't read the whole thread, but seriously, I really do need a recipe! I always think that I'm putting in enough salt, and then my family complains that its not salty enough. But then I'm scared of making it too salty!

I know this is a light thread and it makes me laugh every year.
on a too serious note: may we not need saltwater for this year. Mashiach now after such a saltwatery half year. #day180

So you are saying you need two recipes - the salty version and the reduced sodium one!

(Serious answer? It's always better to undersalt than oversalt - people can always add more salt to taste)

Or they can add more water to water it down.

So no harm either way!

Anyone making their own salt this year for their salt water? I know it's not as ideal as truly making them on your own through tears, but for the desperate among us I suppose it's an option, and it would mean you'd have to head for the water for the day, so maybe it would give you a change of scenery?

Anyway, have a link for those who could use it!

I'm using Plass
It's a glass that looks like plastic. Think it reflects better with salt water.

Is it really shayach if it isn’t Waterdale from the AdDress?

Asking for a friend.

Im actually horrified at these options.
I use gold bowl encrusted with diamonds and I'm beyond horrified that one would consider anything simpler

Hand-blown glass in the shape of a teardrop, custom-made of course. To reflect the teary salt water.

Everyone has a monogrammed lucite container filled with salt water with a parsley garnish by their place. It serves as the place card as well so I'm really saving money.

We have gone to the Aquarium in my city a few times on chol hamoed Pesach. At the end of it, there is a sign that says "recipe for salt water". It's actually a rather complicated recipe obviously since it's for the fish, but every time is see it I think of this thread and laugh.

I would have thought it was just the opposite! At this holy time of year, clearly we should stay as far away from gashmius as we can. Personally, I recommend we try to use the types of bowls our ancestors would have used at the time of the midbar - think metal in a pinch, or even better yet, chisel out part of a rock and fill that opening with salt water (l'zecher the rock that Moshe hit instead of speaking to it). LOL
