Take your senses to the dark side. The large glossy crystals of Hawaiian Black Lava Salt create a dramatic presentation for your special dish. Their taste has a deep earthy flavor and a very dynamic saltiness. The hidden secret to this salt is that it is high in natural anti-oxidants.
Hawaiian Black Lava Salt comes from the island of Molokai. This island is unique from the other islands because the waters around Molokai are pristine. There are no major resorts or industry, and Molokai only boasts a few thousand residents. As a result, the ecosystem remains unpolluted.
The solar salt farms on Molokai evaporate the salt with lava rocks and then combine the salt with activated charcoal. This process causes the crystals to shine with their dark glossy color and also infuses them with detoxifying minerals.
These Hawaiian Black Lava Salt crystals are not meant to be dissolved during the cooking process. Rather it is an accent to your dish. They are used mainly for seafood, sushi and sashimi. However, they are great in steak rubs and on baked potatoes. They can even be used as a roasting salt to seal in the moisture of your meats.
The Hawaiian Black Lava Salt contains Sodium, Calcium, Potassium, Magnesium, Iodine and Zinc.
