Himalayan salt is nutrient dense and contains 84 natural trace elements and minerals, including iron, magnesium, potassium, and calcium, which is where it gets its range of pink color from. Due to its high mineral content, Himalayan salt is believed to have many health benefits and healing properties, including lowering blood pressure, balancing the body's pH, and stimulating circulation. The salt's mineral content also results in a bolder, cleaner taste than most other salts, making this pink salt suitable to use in both cooking and finishing applications.

This himalayan salt is hand-harvested from the Khewra Salt Mine in the Himalayan Mountains of Pakistan using time-honored methods, and is unrefined, unprocessed, and does not contain any additives or anti-caking agents. The mine was formed from the mineral salt deposits of evaporated ancient sea water; however, as the mountain ranges formed, the seabed was buried. Because the salt was left untouched for years under the immense pressure of the mountain ranges, Himalayan salt remains one of the purest salts available.
The salt's fine grain offers a wide range of applications and can be used as a healthier replacement to table salt. Simply use this pink Himalayan salt to fill your tableside salt shakers; its vibrant pink hues will instantly showcase your establishment's commitment to serving healthy, quality food. This fine salt blends well into recipes when baking, and can also be used to bring a pop of color to your salt-rimmed margaritas, for seasoning grilled meats, fish, vegetables, soups, and stews, or as a snack topping.
