About this deal

Some experts claim that this highly refined version of salt is responsible for many sodium-related health issues, whereas unrefined salts heal the body instead of harming it. Really natural, unrefined Guerande sea salt is naturally damp and is best kept in something like a "salt pig' for easy use in the kitchen or at the table. Gray salt and Himalayan pink salt are both popular specialty salts that look and taste great, but are they healthier than regular table salt? Many people like the taste of Himalayan pink salt, as well as its appearance when sprinkled on food.

Because of this, sea salt is best used as a garnish for a burst of flavor or unique mouthfeel in either savory or sweet recipes. Because its flavor can range from light to very salty, it can be difficult to replace substitute sea salt for other salts in recipes.

However, for every 40 kilograms of grey salt produced, only 1 1/2 kilograms of delicate fleur de sel is harvested. It’s a moist salt, so it's quite sticky, but the moisture causes the saltiness to stay on the tongue longer.

However, these minerals occur in trace amounts, leaving sea salt with the approximately same amount of sodium per weight as any other salt. Light grey sea salt means it has been dried by the summer wind and sun – no processing is involved here. Sea salt also contains loads of minerals so it can have an intricate flavor, but since it's fine or medium grained, it can be used in either savory and sweet recipes. In addition to adding a salty flavor to a dish, salt can add dimension to the four other tastes: sweet, bitter, sour, and umami. Pollutants like microplastics, the microscopic remains of plastic waste, have made their way into sea salt.This August 2014 study in ​ Nature Chemistry​ has found that increasing salt levels in the cells caused death to cancer cells in lab tests. Healthy adults should consume at least 2,300mg of sodium a day, whereas people with a history of heart disease should limit their sodium intake to 1,500mg.

The colors of this salt can range from sheer white, to pink and even deep reds based on the mineral and iron content found. Its thin shape means that flake salt can dissolve very quickly, so it is best used as a finishing salt on meats, salads, or desserts like chocolate chip cookies.

Completely unrefined, additive and preservative free, our salt is a healthier alternative to most salts and recommended by health professionals.

Unrefined salts like ours have no more than trace amounts of Iodine, not enough to satisfy your daily recommended amount.Iodine is a particular mineral your thyroid needs to produce certain hormones, and not getting enough can lead to an enlarged thyroid gland (goiter) or hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid), per the Mayo Clinic. At the same time, it prevents water retention – it helps maintain an electrolyte balance and eliminate the retained water from your system.
