FASS stands for Fat, Acid, Salt, and Sweet. In my kitchen, olive oil represents the fat, lemons are the acid, sea salt is the only salt I'll touch, and Grade B organic maple syrup is my preferred sweet. You'll find this Fantastic Four of seasonings right next to my stove, as an ever-present flavor-remedy kit.
