What Makes Herbolaya’s Black Salt Unique?
-
Authentic Source & Natural Purity: Sourced from deep within the Himalayan region, our black salt retains its natural mineral content, giving it a greyish-pink hue and mildly sulphuric aroma—a true sign of purity.
-
Unrefined & Additive-Free: We offer naturally sun-dried salt, free from chemicals, preservatives, or anti-caking agents. It’s a 100% vegan, gluten-free, and non-GMO alternative to table salt.
-
Perfect for Cooking & Wellness: Add it to chaats, raitas, chutneys, fruits, and classic Indian dishes like pani puri or chaas. It’s also a popular seasoning in vegan egg substitutes due to its umami, egg-like flavor.
