I also salt mine, I let mine get pretty dry and I can still form it into little balls or logs, one of my favorite combinations is dried cranberries cinnamon and a swirl of honey. It goes good on a spinach salad if not too sweet and I love it with crackers if on the sweeter side. Don't have to worry about those add ins getting soggy. For savory I like horseradish mixed in with some crispy bacon, yum or fresh garlic diced and mixed, I don't keep them around long though, need to be eaten up which has never been a problem. Sometimes I roll them in dried herbs and ferment in olive oil, always a big hit.
