Fine sea salt - unrefined - 300g, ZoyaShop ®, 300 g

Fine sea salt all-natural, no additives, not refined, not bleached.

Sea salt is produced from the evaporation of seawater. Modern sea salt production is almost entirely found in Mediterranean and other warm, dry climates. Like mineral salt, production of sea salt has been dated to prehistoric times. Some gourmets believe sea salt tastes better and has a better texture than ordinary table salt/salt from mines. In applications that retain sea salt's coarser texture, it can provide a different mouth feel, and may change flavor due to its different rate of dissolution. The mineral content also affects the taste.

What’s the difference between sea salt and table salt?

Sea salt is obtained directly through the evaporation of seawater. It is usually not processed, or undergoes minimal processing, and therefore retains trace levels of minerals like magnesium, potassium, calcium and other nutrients.
Table salt, on the other hand, is mined from salt deposits and then processed to give it a fine texture so it’s easier to mix and use in recipes. Processing strips table salt of any minerals it may have contained, and additives are also usually used to prevent clumping or caking.

Sea salt has as much sodium as table salt.

Sea salt generally contains less iodine than table salt. Iodine has been added to table salt since the 1920s to prevent the iodine-deficiency disease goiter.
