proper environment, water, diet, housing conditions, and they just do it all on their own. Mine were always spawning. Now having eggs hatch and live is another thing. Mine ate most of the eggs, but I never tried to remove and hatch them on my own.

Do you not mean Corydoras habrosus which has salt, as opposed to the plain peppered Corydoras, Corydoras paleatus which doesn't?

I think that's more likely- habrosus is sometimes sold as "salt and pepper cory" in the UK. It does highlight the relative uselessness of common names though!
