Indian Kala Namak Mineral Salt (Coarse)
INDIAN HIMALAYAN BLACK SALT: is also known as kala namak, sanchal, kala loon or black lava salt. Naturally derived from volcanic mines in Northern India and Pakistan and surrounding salt lakes, black salt has been a staple in South Asian diets for centuries. In its rock form, black salt is typically brown in color, but when ground up becomes a pinkish-grey color. Due to the iron-oxides in the salt, its coloring can deepen to a dark reddish-brown when added to foods.
