Do you sell salt or work for a company that does?

That's fine, everyone's gotta have a job. But you do need to disclose that in the post or the first comment, and it can't be just flat out SPAM, which, while salty, isn't quite what we're aiming for.

Morton’s Kosher Salt

Has anyone noticed the salt being less flaky? It’s more round in this latest box I bought and it’s hard to get it to stick to stuff (just made fries and am finally miffed enough to see if I am the only one)

The kosher salt of my childhood( and up until 3 months ago) was flatter and flakier. Anyone else notice this or did I just get a less fortunate batch?

Making sea salt

Hey Everyone, so I'm trying to make my own seasalt from the seawater near where I'm staying. The water I'm collecting is from an inlet (like a fjord) and we've found it really isn't as salty as we'd thought... so the yield of salt on my first go really wasn't that much. Also I'm finding when I boil it down the crystals that are forming are brown? I thought this could be down to the pot I'm using, it's stainless steel... so on my next go I'm going to use a ceramic pot. Or maybe it'd be due to other minerals in the water? If anyone has some insight please let me know! Because the brown salt doesn't look super appealing 😂

The best salt so far.

'm a 75 year old pain and drug free carnivore. I supplement iodine because my salt has none. I used to consume Redmond's Real Salt but I switched to Baja Gold Mineral Sea Salt. The Baja Gold has much better mineral content and much less lead than Redmond's. After switching to Baja Gold most of my prostate and urinary symptoms improved dramatically. Unlike Redmond's the Baja Gold doesn't have so many gritty particles that won't dissolve..

Choosing salt: why so picky?

Recipe required sea salt. How come? What's the big deal with sea salt, regular salt, whatever salt. It there actually a difference, cauze it's so humbug.

Red Boat Fish Salt

If you're looking for a very pungent punch, you have to give the Red Boat Fish Salt a try. Red boat makes the best fish sauce in my opinion and this salt is really amazing. Use it sparingly or prepare to eat alone because it's quite fragrant. I'd love to bake wings with this salt. I'm not affiliated in any way. This is just my favorite flavored salt. https://redboatfishsauce.com/collections/shop/products/red-boat-salt?variant=31297865777285

Pounding salt.

I was given as a gift significantly large chunks of pink salt with a flimsy aluminum grate. The size of the chunks is about 1.5 inches by 2 inches. Grating the salt is relatively impossible ( to hold firmly) and once the chunks are smaller it would be impossible to grate. How do I process this salt for use?
