I pre-emptively tip my hat to the top alchemists that find a more efficient intermediate than this "salt V". With a flick of a double-arm and a tick of Van Berlo's Wheel, the salt V becomes the needed essences in 5 instructions...I'm merely dissatisfied with the 14 instructions to form it, as with its taste. I do not recommend it over flake salt.
