The primary role of a "Selmelier" is to assist chefs with the decisions about using salt, in what quantities, types according to the type and size of dish being prepared.

In the Middle Ages, salt was so expensive that is was referred to as the "White gold".

Salt was used to preserve Egyptian mummies.

In the United States of America, only 6% of the salt is used as a food. 17% is used for de-icing streets and highways in the winter !

The presence of salt (or any electrolyte) in the water accelerates the reaction because it increases the conductivity of water, effectively increasing the concentration of ions in the water and so increasing the rate of oxidation (corrosion) of the metal.
