7 Creative Ways to Use Himalayan Pink Salt

If you haven’t heard about Himalayan pink salt, that’s about to change! Although the eye-catching ingredient dates back approximately 250 million years, its rise in popularity is more recent. Mined from deep within the Himalayan mountain range for which it is named, Himalayan pink salt is generally recognized as the purest form of salt in the world.

Himalayan pink salt and table salt share a similar chemical composition. Both are made of sodium chloride (NaCl). However, Himalayan pink salt also contains 84 trace minerals, including calcium, magnesium and potassium, which give it its signature pink shade and account for the subtle difference in flavor.

Not only is Himalayan pink salt more attractive than its traditional counterpart (there’s really no arguing with its pretty pink hue!), many believe it offers additional health benefits, thanks to those bonus minerals. When consumed in place of the standard stuff, Himalayan pink salt purportedly aids hydration, lowers blood pressure, rids the body of heavy metals and helps improve sleep, to name just a few.

Now that we have your attention, we’ve identified seven creative ways to use Himalayan pink salt (other than sprinkling it over your food, which is a given!):
