What Is Himalayan Pink Salt?

Himalayan pink salt is a type of rock salt (halite) formed from ancient salt deposits and extracted from underground mines. Chemically it is mainly sodium chloride, and its pink to reddish-white shades come from natural trace minerals such as iron compounds. Because it is unrefined, the colour of the crystals can vary slightly from pack to pack, which is completely natural. In India it is also searched as sendha namak, lahori namak, or rock salt.

How to Use Himalayan Pink Salt

• Use as an everyday cooking salt for dals, sabzis, rice, and curries
• Sprinkle over salads, fruit, raita, and chaat as a mild finishing salt
• Add to lemon water, buttermilk, or traditional drinks in small amounts
• Use in marinades, brines, and pickling
• Coarse crystals can be crushed or ground at home for table use

Start with a little and adjust to taste, as the salt level can differ from your regular refined table salt.
