  1. Hi Veena,

    I am new to your site and was reading all the payasam recipes and i found that in all the recipes, you have asked to add salt, this is the first time i am seeing that we need to add salt. Can you tell me the reason why we should add salt? Just out of curiosity I am asking this. Please reply.
