A common food seasoning (4)

I believe the answer is:

salt

(Other definitions for salt that I've seen before include "Common substance" , "Mariner; sodium chloride" , "Wit; sodium chloride" , "Crystalline substance used to season food" , "NaCl" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
