All salt is the by-product of evaporation, either in salt mines or in the sea. The colour and texture of salt depend on the type of salt deposit and the way the crystals are processed during evaporation. Salts can also have varying levels of other minerals, which are naturally present in the deposits. Different textures can lead to different levels of “saltiness” and will affect the flavour and consistency of your food. Different colours add visual impact to a dish.\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2018-03-24T06:47:36-06:00","sort_order":"alpha-asc","template_suffix":"","disjunctive":true,"rules":[{"column":"type","relation":"equals","condition":"Salts"},{"column":"tag","relation":"equals","condition":"Salts"}],"published_scope":"global","image":{"created_at":"2018-03-26T14:21:52-06:00","alt":"","width":1600,"height":1600,"src":"\/\/silkroadspices.ca\/cdn\/shop\/collections\/Specialty_Salts_collection.jpg?v=1522095712"}}]

Himalayan Pink salt is a pure, hand-mined salt found in the Himalayan Mountains of Pakistan. The salt crystals range in colour from white to pink to deep red. This salt was deposited through the evaporation of pre-historic seas and has been hidden beneath the mountains for millions of years. It is known for its healing properties and has been used in a variety of natural remedies, bath products and spa treatments for centuries.
In a culinary setting, Himalayan Pink salt is used as a replacement for table salt and can be ground to a finer consistency in a salt mill.
