Keep your salt rocks stored neatly and on display with the Rivsalt Spice Bowls and keep a Spice Grater nearby for instant grating gratification.
Himalayan Rock Salt
Himalayan rock salt originates from northern Pakistan, an area called the “Salt Range”, not far from the Himalayas. It is a natural rock salt that was created when the prehistoric seas evaporated some 250 million years ago. The actual salt rocks vary in colour from pure white to beautiful light pink and dramatic deep red, all depending on the iron oxide content. Flavour: Highly flavoured with long-lasting spicy heat over a mild mineral body. Ideal for: seasoning meat and fish, as well as vegetables.
Persian Blue Rock Salt
Extracted from the salt mines in northern Iran, Persian blue rock salt is one of the rarest and most exclusive salts in the world. The intriguing blue colour occurs during the forming of the salt’s crystalline structure, as intense pressure is exerted on the salt deposits. The individual crystals fracture the light in an unusual way creating an optical illusion that makes the salt appear more or less shimmering blue. Flavour: Initially quite present, then rather mild with a silken sweetness. Ideal for: Seafood, salads, French cuisine and truffles.
Kala Namak Rock Salt – India – Black
Shimmering black rock salt with unique exotic fragrance and flavour, ideal for spicing Indian and oriental dishes, min 97% NaCI.
Kala Namak truly is a secret ingredient – especially in vegan cuisine – as it adds an eggy, tangy and slightly smoky taste due to its high sulphur content. The unusual flavour makes it perfect for many vegan dishes like tofu scramble, chickpea omelettes and fruit salads. Flavour: Slightly smokey, tangy. Ideal for: South Asian cuisine, chaats, chutneys and raitas, vegan dishes, savoury deep-fried snacks, movie night popcorn
