SALT OF THE…VOLCANO

Black salt, or Himalayan Black Salt or kala namak, is a volcanic rock salt created and found in the surrounding areas of the Himalayas. Aside from sodium chloride, it also contains traces of sulphur compounds that are naturally found in the area. But don’t worry. The amount of sulphur in the salt won’t affect our health at all.

But it is what gives Black Salt its interesting aroma, and tangy taste. And it’s used in a wide variety of ways! Commonly, it’s an ingredient in the Indian chaat masala. It’s also a wonderful way to elevate any dish, adding an extra layer and complexity.

Keeps well in the pantry. Once opened, store in an airtight container away from moisture. Consume within 2-3 weeks.
