Thanks. No mixing, but only sprinkling. Figures.

What do you get if or when you mix salt, water and ashes: a muddy substance.
What did they do with it?

According to the Pontifical of Magdalen college:

Post  hoc misceatur sal et cinis. faciatque ex eis crucem episcopus super
ipsam aquam et dicat. "Hec commixtio salis. et cineris. cum aqua. bendicta
sit. sanctificata sit. ad consecrationem huius eclesie. et altaris in nomine
domini."

 

I imagine him sprinkling the salt and ashes on the surface of the water
(held in a bowl?) in the form of a cross
