This really works. My grandmother, who was a fantastic cook, used to do this whenever she had added too much salt to a dish. And its something I do myself.

I saw that adding a potato to hot dishes while they cook can reduce the salty taste, but does this work for cold dishes? I have made a batch of hummus and added way too much salt. Any ideas?

put a spoon of flour in the bowl of the food,don't move it until a lump of flour is coming up. Then throw away the lump, and you have to give extra salt in the food

throw away the dish and next time dont add too much salt.
Alternatively, cook another dish without salt and mix both.
What if the dish is Potatos curry

When I added some garlic salt to my home-made spagetti sauce and the lid fell out thus to much salt. I will remember to hold my hand out under it next time. I will try one potato (it seems I've heard of this trick before) and if not enough two potatoes. Even wonderful successful cooks make mistakes once in a while!!
