Common Name: Black Salt

Also Known As: Himalayan Black Salt, Indian Black Salt, Kala Namak Mineral Salt, Sanchal
Part Used: Natural mineral salt, kiln-processed
Description: Black Salt (Kala Namak) is a naturally occurring mineral salt traditionally sourced from regions surrounding the Himalayan foothills. The raw salt is mined from natural underground deposits, cleaned to remove impurities, and kiln-heated with plant-derived materials that contribute to its characteristic colour and aroma. During heating, the salt transforms from its raw crystalline form into dark, reddish-black granules that lighten to a soft pinkish tone when ground.
The processed salt retains a fine crystalline texture with natural colour variations created during heating. Its unique mineral composition gives it a distinct savoury profile commonly appreciated in various culinary styles. When ground, it forms a smooth, free-flowing powder that blends easily with other dry ingredients.
The salt is manually sorted, cleaned, kiln-heated, and mechanically crushed or ground, depending on the final size required.
Uses: Black Salt (Kala Namak) is used in culinary preparations such as seasoning blends, snack mixes, savoury dishes, spice blends, and gourmet salt assortments. It is also used in food craft projects, culinary education kits, and natural seasoning formulations where distinctive mineral salts are desired.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark place in an airtight container. Refrigeration not required.
