RED LAVA SALT
RED LAVA SALT (natural mineral), a salt with mineral-rich crystals and slightly smoky, earthy notes, is ideal for seasonings, marinades, and creative culinary preparations. Prized for its intense color and mineral richness, it adds depth and character to all your culinary creations. A natural product, it guarantees carefully selected quality and authentic purity.
Red lava salt, also known as Alae salt and Hawaiian red salt. It is a salt found exclusively in the U.S. state of Hawaii. Its distinctive feature, as its name suggests, is that it is composed of two exceptionally pure ingredients:
- Hawaiian salt, known for its exceptional purity
- volcanic clay derived from the volcanic rocks found throughout the archipelago
Once cleaned and purified, the clay is added to seawater in a settling basin fed directly from the archipelago. This effective process removes all minerals. The flavor that emerges from this exceptional product is as puzzling as it is captivating. The slightly briny aroma of red lava salt pairs perfectly with the exceptional «toasted» note imparted by the lava clay.
Hawaiian red lava salt has a wide range of uses. However, unlike most salts, it is used primarily to season dishes. In fact, its brick-red color gives dishes a unique appearance. It guarantees a one-of-a-kind culinary journey right in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.
Be careful with the amount you use, though: this salt has a strong flavor, so don't use it like any other salt!
Did you know? Originally, Hawaiian salt formed naturally as rain ran down the island’s volcanoes. Then, one day, local artisans decided to add purified volcanic clay to give it its famous brick-red color.
