• sea salt

    From JIM WELLER@1:135/392 to SEAN DENNIS on Sat Jan 1 21:11:00 2022

    Quoting Sean Dennis to Dave Drum <=-

    I found that for my tastes, using sea salt in place of table salt
    makes things that much more saltier to where I like the taste better.

    It contains a noticeable amount of calcium, magnesium and potassium,
    traces of other metals, some sulfates and bromine, and quite often
    clay and algae "impurities".

    I have some pink Pakistani Himalayan salt. The colour comes from a
    minor amount of iron, zinc, and chromium in it. The difference in
    taste from regular table salt is real, albeit subtle.

    Another dish with liquid red-pepper seasoning:

    Like I said to Dave, that's why I like sea salt so much. It has a much
    better taste to me. Thankfully I am okay with my salt levels and I do not
    eat that much salt unless I add it to food.

    I have some pink Pakistani Himalayan salt. The colour comes from a
    minor amount of iron, zinc, and chromium in it. The difference in

    I've had that before and it has its own taste to me. It's more savory in my taste.
