*27*) [line 2] V'ELU HEN MEI MELACH HA'MUTARIN - (These words are not part

31a) [line 18] PUGLA - a radish
*b*) [line 18] HAVAH MALACHNA PUGLA - I would salt radish on Shabbos
because I thought that salt is detrimental to it since it weakens its
taste, and therefore it is not an accepted manner of preserving the radish

beneficial
*32*) [line 20] KISHREI KISHREI - they would salt entire "logs" of slices
of radish piled up one on top of the other (during the *week* -- Ohr Zaru'a
2:73). This demonstrated that salting is indeed beneficial to the radish,
and salting it is indeed considered an accepted manner of preserving it.
Therefore it is prohibited to salt it on Shabbos.
