Crystal salt | fine | 0.2-1.0 mm | dark pink

What is it about / Product description

This crystal salt from Pakistan is a natural rock salt with a fine, flaky grain size of 0.2–1.0 mm and an intense dark pink color. Biova offers it as high-quality bulk goods for kitchens, gastronomy and further processing, and it is suitable as a universal table and cooking salt.

The uniform grain size ensures good dosing and quick dissolving in liquids, doughs and spice blends. The pink rock salt is processed without chemical additives and without anti-caking agents, preserving its original character.

In everyday cooking, Dark Pink salt can be used flexibly for cooking, seasoning and adding salt at the table. It goes well with vegetables, meat, fish, salads and delicatessen products and is ideal for spice manufacturers looking for a free-flowing, natural crystal salt in bulk quality.

Origin

The rock salt comes from the Salt Range in the Pakistani province of Punjab, a traditional region for high-quality rock salts. Deep-lying deposits, a dry climate and stable geological conditions contribute to consistently high crystal quality.

Cultivation / Production / Harvest

The salt is obtained in the traditional way underground in mines, where compact salt veins are mechanically extracted. After coarse crushing, the material is cleaned several times and milled to the fine grain size of 0.2–1.0 mm before Biova fills it as bulk goods.

Special features

The characteristic feature is the reddish dark pink color of the Dark Pink rock salt, which is caused by naturally occurring iron oxide. It is an untreated, natural crystal salt without chemical additives or anti-caking agents, with a fine, flaky structure for versatile applications.

Differences in origin and processing

In contrast to sea salt from evaporated seawater, this rock salt originates from prehistoric inland seas that became enclosed in the rock. The homogeneous crystal structure of the Pakistani deposits allows precise sorting by grain size, enabling Biova to supply a well-processable pink rock salt for different fields of application.

Taste & smell

The crystal salt offers a mildly salty, clear taste without intrusive off-notes and supports the natural flavor of dishes. It is neutral in smell and therefore also suitable for sensitive applications such as delicatessen, spice blends or small-batch manufacture products.

Possible applications

• As a universal cooking and table salt for cooking, seasoning and salting warm and cold dishes.
