Oh bread salt is totally for taste. The yeast doesn't like it. Shit even the sugar in bread recipes isn't important. If you have enough time all you really need to make bread is water, flour, and an oven. Of course said bread will taste like shit.

I think it's funny how much they emphasize how important salt is then include Tuscan bread recipes. Not having salt changes how you proof it because it changes yeast activity, but you absolutely do not need it to make bread. Heat from the oven is just as fine for stopping over proofing.
