Himalayan Cooking Salt Tiles

Our Himalayan salt blocks are the best available anywhere, hand-picked from the purest seams of **0 million year old salt deposits deep under the rugged Punjabi landscape.
Himalayan Pink Salt Blocks has a high specific energy (energy per unit of mass), so they hold any temperature you bring it to for a good while. Likewise, this makes for excellent heat distribution, making grandma's heavy old cast iron skillet seem like tinfoil by comparison.
Because Himalayan Salt Blocks generally have an extremely low amount of porosity, and virtually no residual moisture (.**6%), the salt plates can be safely heated or chilled to great extremes. We have tested them from 0°F up to **0°F (**8°C to **0°C). Salt melts at ***3.4°F (**0.8°C).Suitable for all uses, from salt block freezing to frying to curing to grilling. Serve fruits and cheeses, cure unreal gravlax, warm a salad of wilted greens and Roquefort cheese, sear lobster or flatiron steak or duck breast with duck fat-fried potato chips, chill tuna tartar or scallop ceviche, and for dessert, try freezing some salted bitters ice cream.
Two other considerations come into play when working with our Himalayan salt blocks. First, their lack of porosity means that the surface area touching your food is minimal, so these large blocks of salt will impart only a very moderate saltiness. Second, the high quantity of trace minerals (1.2% sulfur, .4% calcium, .*5% potassium, .*6% magnesium, and *0 other trace minerals) impart a more mild and full taste to the salt, and by extension, more flavor complexity to your food.Containing the same *4 essential trace minerals as our blood, these incredible crystals hold over **0 million years of healing energy.During scrubs or bathing, the salts mineral ions penetrate the skin, balancing bio-energetic weak points, stimulating regeneration, and inducing deep relaxation.
