If you want to become a great chef in **Hytale**, one essential ingredient you’ll need is **salt**. Salt in Hytale comes in two forms: salt blocks and bags of salt that you can use directly in recipes. However, finding salt isn’t straightforward and can be a bit tricky if you don’t know where to look. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you get salt in Hytale.
### How to Get Salt in Hytale
To obtain salt, you’ll need to use **fishing traps**. These traps can be placed in bodies of water and will catch a variety of water-related items, including salt blocks. Keep in mind that catching salt blocks is somewhat random, so it’s a good idea to set up multiple fishing traps to increase your chances of regularly collecting salt blocks.
### Crafting Fishing Traps
Before you can begin fishing for salt, you need to craft fishing traps. To do this, you must have unlocked the **Tier 2 Farmer’s Workbench**. Once you have access, gather the following resources to craft one fishing trap:
– 10 units of any wood
– 50 Essence of Life
– 20 Plant Fiber
– 1 Iron Ingot
The Essence of Life might take some time to farm since it’s required in relatively large quantities. Be prepared to spend some time gathering plant materials to collect enough Essence of Life.
### Using Fishing Traps
After crafting your fishing traps, place them in a nearby river or any suitable water source. Check them regularly for catches. With patience and enough traps set up, you will soon start collecting salt blocks.
### Making Salt at the Chef’s Stove
Once you have salt blocks, the next step is to convert them into usable salt. Head over to the **Chef’s Stove** to make salt. Fortunately, you only need salt blocks to craft salt—no other ingredients are required.
