ENOUGH SALT PLEASE

I was cooking this morning in the restaurant for several people. After cooking, the customer called me and told me that they would like to have a food that has no salt i it. I thought it was weird since cooking with salt is very important. No salt no taste at all. But as the customer explained to me, I catched it that they have problems with their kidneys and that is why they want me to cook for them a dish without salt.
I was trained in the culinary school that there are foods that are not requiring salt at all. The key for this food is freshness. I told the customer that I will make sushi for them, since there is no salt in it. Japanese foods are less salt compared to other dishes. Freshness is the key ingredient in all Japanese dishes.
