Scene 1:
You've measured the ingredients for your vegetable soup, and put them in a premade broth to cook. After adding all the herbs and spices, and salt and pepper, you taste the soup and realize that the broth was already quite salty. Now your soup is salty enough to make you run for running water. How can you take the salty edge off?

A Add a chunk of potato
B Add a small amount of sugar
C Add a bit of fat, like butter, oil, or animal fat
