Summary

Himalayan pink salt, a stunning culinary artifact, is mined from a Jurassic-era salt deposit in the Himalayan Mountains. This salt is not just a visual treat with its mottled pink and white hues but also a mineral powerhouse containing 84 beneficial trace minerals. These minerals enrich the salt with a complex flavor profile, making it a versatile addition to any culinary creation. The extra coarse chunks offer a variety of textures, whether ground in a mill or crushed in a mortar and pestle.
