Bitterman’s Kilauea Onyx Black Hawaiian Sea Salt – Small Jar

Description

Kilauea Onyx sea salt has a deep obsidian black color and moist, silky texture. The salt is solar evaporated with purified black lava rock to add minerals, then combined with activated charcoal for color and to add detoxifying effects. The additives compliment the natural salt flavor and add a large number of health benefits to the salt. But the real fun is in the effect it brings to food. Sprinkled on grilled fish, plantains, fruit salads, pan seared scallops, or perhaps most startlingly, sushi and sashimi, is where this salt can, slightly literally, make your food shine. The origin of any gourmet salt is a critical factor in assessing its quite a lot of qualities. Atypical table salt along side many specialty brands are super-heated, processed and treated to remove impurities and pollution. Alternatively, such drastic steps also remove the very electrolytes, trace minerals and elements our bodies crave, resulting in salt that is approximately 99% sodium chloride thus missing much of the health- and beauty-giving properties of the primordial ocean from which all life on earth arose. Kilauea Onyx Hawaiian sea salt farms are located in Kaunakakai, on the tiny island of Molokai, and for a very important reason. On the subject of distance from other land masses, the Hawaiian Island archipelago is the most isolated place on earth, which means that the ocean waters of Hawaii are as pristine as any in the world. But even within Hawaii, Molokai is special. Molokai is the least developed of the Islands of Aloha, with just a few thousand residents, no major resort areas, and no industry; its lifestyle remains rural and slow paced.
