When choosing salt, we believe you should choose the best: salt that provides minerals and trace elements – without additives and anti-caking agents. And we promise, we don't want anti-caking agents in our bodies. All the salt we sell is completely natural and without unnecessary additives. We have received fantastic new salt varieties from Selina Naturally, who also produce the immensely popular gray, semi-moist, coarse-grained Celtic salt.

Celtic Sea Salt Gourmet Seaweed Seasoning

The salt base consists of finely ground Celtic salt mixed with four different organic and wild-harvested seaweeds/algae; Dulse, Kelp, Wakame and Kombu, as well as red shiso, garlic, onion and lemon. Celtic Sea Salt is an unprocessed salt that is harvested by hand. It is dried in the sun and wind, which allows it to retain the moisture of the sea along with all the important minerals and trace elements naturally found in salt. The seaweeds ensure that the salt contains iodine.The perfect blend provides a very rich umami flavor.

What does Rahima think?

This salt is wonderful on salads, vegetables, quinoa... yes, I think it works on almost everything. I'm a real salt enthusiast and often think about not eating too much. But since I like salt, I want the best. That's where all the salts from Selina Naturally come in. I like all their salts. This was a perfect combination in flavor and the seaweeds really add that little extra without overpowering with an "algae taste". I don't think synthetic iodine in regular table salt is a good idea for our health, but that's another discussion. So getting iodine from seaweed or a good supplement is a better alternative... Here the seaweeds provide exactly that. It dispenses just the right amount when you sprinkle the salt.

Makai Pure Deep Sea Salt

A salt for true salt enthusiasts... The salt is sourced from more than 600 meters below the ocean surface. The salt comes from areas with deep underwater currents that move very slowly and rarely reach the surface. The seawater is transported to enclosed salt houses and dried naturally with the help of solar heat. The harvesting method is completely free from mechanical and chemical bleaching. The crystals of the Makai salt are hand-harvested, inspected, and cleaned by hand, actually with tweezers, to exact standards.Slow evaporation with the help of the strong sun creates ideal conditions for the characteristic, pure white Makai crystals to form. They are carefully scooped into wooden molds where remaining moisture is drained from the salt. The salt is then packaged by hand. The salt has a fine, delicate salty taste that almost transitions to sweetness. It is a gourmet salt worth trying and it contains less sodium than other salts. Makai contains 0.4 grams of sodium per serving compared to 0.6 grams in table salt.

What does Rahima think?

Oh, it's fantastic, it's very salty, yet it's smooth in taste and sweet. You can take a piece directly in your mouth like candy (if you like salt). This salt works well on everything I think, even on chocolate desserts I can imagine. Haven't tried that yet. It is coarse-grained (flake salt) so if you want to grind it, a nice mortar is a good alternative. I like mortars, they look good, bring out flavor in spices and you feel so professional in the kitchen when crushing spices...=)
