Crossword Genius

Add salt to spring, perhaps? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

season

This clue is a double definition.

'add salt' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'to spring perhaps?' is the second definition.
(spring is a season)

(Other definitions for season that I've seen before include "One of four periods" , "Time of 9" , "Add condiments to for time of year" , "Salt, maybe" , "Add flavour at a certain time of year" .)

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