Preparing chollent from Thursday

HH

Some people are mehader to have their chollent on the fire already on Thursday. A lot of extra water needs to be added , which we burn out. The water needs to be salted and spiced, otherwise it will dilute the cooking chollent, but the water will burn out leaving an excess of all the salt and spices it carried. The right balance needs to be found, seeking the minimal amount for the extra water. Someone who eats the chollent before Shabbos, before the water burns out, is going to get a watered down taste.

The Zohar says that the salt is the Tzadik, and the Talmud says that the spices are the Torah.
