Well....a good bit of the salt was dealt with by the potatoes absorbing it overnight. Not enough of it, but it no longer tasted like the sea. It did not all get eaten. (did I mention I went outside and forgot to watch the pot, so overcooked the potatoes?) So it wasn't a visually attractive dish either.   3 people who were brave enough to try it did come by my office door and asked for the recipe. I could still taste the bitterness and the lack of robust oregano - but these folks had never eaten it before....And I kept my mouth shut and passed along the recipe. They will be pleasantly surprised when they fix it with good ingredients. Regarding the recipe - I simply said "add salt to suit your taste."
