How to use it

Pink, pretty, and ancient — 600 million years underground will do that. Coarse crystals make this a finishing salt: sprinkle on grilled meats, roasted vegetables, salads, and chocolate. The visual pop on a dark plate is half the appeal. Also great as a table salt in a pinch bowl for guests. Same clean salinity as other sea salts with a slightly mineral edge. The everyday Himalayan. Same ancient pink salt, ground fine for cooking. Dissolves cleanly into curries, dals, soups, and baked goods — you'll notice a subtle mineral edge that table salt lacks. Popular in wellness circles for its trace minerals, but the real reason to use it is that it tastes clean and seasons evenly. Swap 1:1 for table salt in any recipe.

What it goes with

Cooking with this salt? Match the tea to the meal. Our Masala Chai with Indian food, our Assam with a Sunday roast, our Darjeeling with lighter fare. The salt makes any tea taste a touch smoother — that's the science of sodium and tannin.

Maple Peach

The maple peach is delicious. What a beautiful combination. I will most definitely order it again, and a higher quantity of it.

Always handy

I use dillweed often. This dill is fresh and has a nice aroma. I use it in marinades, salad dressings, and on fish. Good stuff.

It worked beautifully; perhaps if I add a little more honey, it would make it better… It is a wellness tea, after all!
