Frequently Asked Questions
Is white Himalayan salt less healthy than pink?
No! Both contain the same 84+ trace minerals. The color difference comes from slightly different mineral ratios, but both offer the same health benefits. White salt simply has less iron oxide, which is what gives pink salt its color.
Will this discolor my pickles or ferments?
No! That's the main advantage of white Himalayan salt for pickling. Your pickles, sauerkraut, and fermented vegetables will stay their natural color without any pink or gray tinting.
Does it taste different from pink Himalayan salt?
Yes, slightly. White Himalayan salt has a milder, more subtle flavor profile. Many people prefer it for delicate dishes where you want the salt to season without being noticed. Pink salt has a slightly more robust, mineral-forward taste.
Can I use this in a salt grinder?
This fine grain version flows perfectly in salt shakers but is too fine for most grinders. If you want white salt for a grinder, consider our coarse white Himalayan salt instead.
Is this good for people with sensitive taste?
Yes! Many customers with sensitive palates prefer white Himalayan salt because of its milder flavor. It provides seasoning without the stronger mineral taste some people detect in pink salt or the harsh bite of table salt.
