If you've never liked salt even when omnivorous, the lacking flavor in
your vegetarian diet isn't salt. The lacking flavor must be something
normally associated with meat. I suggest zesting up your dishes with
mushrooms, butter, cream, olive oil, eggplant, walnuts, almonds. Also
try lemon pepper, hot peppers, vinegar, orange and lemon zest.
