If you're up for a longer read, I would actually recommend Salt: a world history. You might be surprised at why salt is actually as expansive as it is.

Near a Thousand Tables is a great history of food and cooking. Salt: A World History is also really interesting and thorough, though long (I never finished reading it). It covers many aspects of human history through the lens of salt - think trading, food preservation, geopolitics - which I found fascinating and a novel way of tying many different fields together.

The book Salt is a really interesting history of salt. Wars have been fought over access to salt deposits.
