Raw Sea Salt / Natural Salt

Our Raw Sea Salt is a natural and unrefined salt harvested directly from pristine ocean waters. It is carefully hand-harvested using traditional methods, ensuring the highest quality and purity. Unlike processed table salt, our Raw Sea Salt retains its natural mineral content, making it a healthier and more flavourful choice for your culinary needs.

Features:

  • Production Process: Raw Sea salt is typically produced through solar evaporation, where seawater is collected in shallow ponds or pans and allowed to evaporate naturally under the sun, leaving behind salt crystals.
  • Texture and Appearance: It often has a coarse texture due to minimal processing, and its colour can range from white to grey or even pink, depending on the minerals and algae present in the seawater.
  • Absence of Additives: Unlike table salt, which often contains additives like anti-caking agents and iodine, raw sea salt is generally free from such additives. However, some brands may fortify their sea salt with iodine to address dietary needs.
  • Culinary Uses: It is versatile and can be used in cooking, baking, seasoning, and finishing dishes. Its coarse texture and unique flavor make it popular for use as a finishing salt on salads, grilled meats, and seafood.

Benefits:

  • Natural Mineral Content: Raw sea salt retains minerals such as magnesium, calcium, and potassium, which are beneficial for health.
  • Less Processing: It undergoes minimal processing, preserving its natural composition and flavour.
  • Rich Flavour Profile: It often has a more complex and distinct taste compared to highly refined salts.
  • Environmental Considerations: Harvesting sea salt can be more environmentally friendly compared to mining rock salt.

Applications:

  • Cooking and Seasoning: Raw sea salt can be used in everyday cooking and seasoning to enhance the flavour of dishes. Its coarse texture and natural mineral content can add depth to soups, stews, sauces, and marinades.
  • Finishing Salt: Due to its unique texture and flavour, raw sea salt is often used as a finishing salt. Sprinkling it on dishes just before serving can provide a delightful crunch and burst of flavour.
  • Curing and Preserving: Historically, sea salt has been used for curing and preserving meats, fish, and vegetables. Its ability to draw out moisture and inhibit bacterial growth helps in preserving food items.
  • Bakery and Confectionery: In addition to baking applications, sea salt is used in the production of snacks, chocolates, and confectionery items to balance sweetness and enhance flavours.
  • Beverage Industry: Sea salt is sometimes used in small amounts in beverages to enhance flavour profiles. For example, it can be added to certain cocktails or specialty beverages for a unique taste.
  • Cheese and Dairy Production: Sea salt is used in cheese making and dairy processing to flavour cheeses, regulate fermentation, and enhance the texture of dairy products.
