One way to get more salt in homemade cooking is to mix it with other spices, strong umami flavor and sweetness plus acidity. If you've ever watched a cooking show, you probably heard someone mention balance; that means all 5 tastes we get - salt, heat, sweet, sour, and umami. Try upping the other flavors and the increased salt should be less pronounced. As an aside, vegetarian foods that are pre-made are often high in sodium in comparison with plain tofu etc.
