About Himalayan rock salt
Himalayan Rock Salt is a mineral-rich, pink-hued salt sourced from ancient salt deposits in the Punjab region of Pakistan, near the foothills of the Himalayas. Unlike refined table salt, it is minimally processed and contains trace minerals such as potassium, magnesium, and calcium, which contribute to its distinctive color and subtle flavor. It is widely used in cooking, especially in South Asian cuisine, and can also be found in health practices like salt lamps and bath soaks. Himalayan Rock Salt is valued for its mineral content and lack of additives, making it a natural alternative to heavily processed salts. However, it's still sodium-rich, so moderation is key to support heart health and prevent issues associated with high sodium intake. Offering a mild, earthy taste and visual appeal, this salt has gained popularity in gourmet kitchens and wellness communities alike.
