About
Himalayan Pink Salt: Mineral Rich
Unlike table salt, Himalayan Pink Salt (Halite or rock salt) contains up to 2% trace minerals, including potassium, magnesium, and calcium. It also offers a more umami flavor than table salt and is valued for its purity and mineral content, believed to offer health benefits like electrolyte balance and improved hydration.
Used in gourmet cooking and as a finishing salt, it contributes unique taste and potential health benefits, making it a preferred alternative to regular table salt.
We typically stock both a fine grind and coarse grind.
