Description

Hawaiian Sea Salt is a natural salt obtained through the evaporation of seawater off the coasts of Hawaii. This salt is known for its characteristic pink color, which is due to the presence of natural minerals and red algae, as well as its coarse and crunchy texture, making it ideal for adding a special touch to various culinary preparations.

Originating from the Hawaiian Islands, Hawaiian sea salt has been traditionally used not only as a seasoning but also in rituals and healing practices. Its artisanal extraction and high mineral content make it a healthier alternative to common refined salt.

Among its main properties, it stands out for the presence of essential minerals such as iron, magnesium, and calcium, which provide a more complex flavor and health benefits in moderate amounts. Furthermore, its texture makes it easy to use as a finishing salt for salads, meats, fish, and vegetables, offering a gourmet and natural touch to recipes.

In different Hispanic American countries, Hawaiian sea salt may also be known as Hawaiian pink salt, pink Hawaiian salt, or simply pink salt, although it is important not to confuse it with other pink salts, such as Himalayan pink salt, which comes from different regions.
