You cannot solidify water using salt. As you add salt to water, the concentration in the water increases until the water is saturate. After that any more salt you add will simply not dissolve. It is possible to create a supersaturated solution by adding the salt to warm water and then cooling it. Disturbing the water will cause some salt to precipitate and sink the to bottom.

You can, however, solidify water using sodium acetate. First you add enough sodium acetate to hot water that the concentration is greater than 1.2 g/ml. Then allow the solution to cool. After it is cooled, drop in a single grain of sodium acetate.
