SHORT DESCRIPTION

Kala Namak belongs to the rock salt family. It is an evaporitic rock composed of sodium chloride (NaCl) and other minerals, including iron, sulfur, potassium and magnesium, which gives it its characteristic color and flavor.

USE

Kala Namak is a traditional topping for "raitas," a mixture of yogurt, cucumber, and tomatoes, and a popular spice in Indian cuisine, also often used in chutneys and other dishes. In Ayurvedic medicine, it is used to treat digestive problems, heartburn, and bloating, and is a good option for vegans who want to mimic the taste of eggs in their dishes.

GOOD TO KNOW

The name "Kala Namak" comes from Hindi and means "black salt", which refers to its dark color compared to other types of salt. In Europe it is sold under the name Kala Namak or black salt.

TASTE

In contrast to normal table salt, which consists mainly of sodium chloride and is often very salty, Kala Namak has a lower sodium chloride content of between 95% and 97%. Due to its exceptional processing, it has a strong, sulphurous egg flavour and is therefore often used as an egg substitute in vegan cuisine. This is particularly helpful for people who want or have to do without eggs.
