Category: Salt

This traditional Pacific sea salt has been made for hundreds of years on the islands of Hawaii. Local inhabitants add natural, red Alaea clay to give the salt its burnt sienna coloring. The Alaea clay serves to mellow the sharpness of the salt, softening the flavor. This salt has historically been used in sacred Hawaiian rituals, but today's chefs prefer to showcase its color and texture.

It can be sprinkled over poached white-fleshed fish, giving the delicate preparation both color and crunch. Use on vegetables, salads, fish and other meats, or try it on chocolate and ice cream for a mellow salt flavor.

Jacob ★★★★★

I love how the natural red clay gives it that earthy flavor and beautiful burnt sienna color, it's unlike any salt I've tried before. A little sprinkle really elevates grilled fish and vegetables.

Robert ★★★★★

That deep burnt sienna color looks stunning on pork roasts and gives everything a subtle earthiness I haven't found in regular sea salt. The clay really does cling to the crystals, so a little pinch goes a long way.

Brian ★★★★★

I was skeptical about the color at first, but the Alaea clay actually adds a subtle, earthy flavor that makes roasted veggies taste incredible. The texture is flaky and light, perfect for finishing dishes.
