To pinch is a verb. "Pinch" as in the phrase "in a pinch" or as in "a pinch of salt", then pinch would be a noun.
A "pinch" is just that... such as a pinch of salt in a recipe. I was told at one point that a Pinch works out to about 1/8th of a teaspoon, but it's probably even a little less than that. To do "a pinch of salt", one would pinch some salt between their fingers and put it in the recipe.
A pinch of salt is however much salt you can fit in between two fingers. This is normally a very small amount of salt.

The standard collective noun for 'salt' is a lot of salt(perhaps a Biblical reference?).Because there is no specific collective noun for salt that we commonly use, the context of your sentence would determine the collective noun to use; for example: a pinch, a box, a shaker, a cup, etc.The noun 'salt' is an uncountable (mass) noun and the nouns used for units of an uncountable noun (pinch, box, cup, etc.) are actually called partitive nouns.
