How to use pink coarse salt in cooking
Just like normal salt, you can use pink salt to season sauces and marinades alongside some coarse fresh ground black pepper. Another good tip is to season the meat before cooking, pressing the crystals into the surface to ensure a deep seasoning before it hits the pan.
Aside from that, pink salt offers the chance to create a Himalayan salt block. They conduct heat well, at high temperatures too, allowing you to bake anything from meat to eggs, to fresh fruit and pizzas.
Why pink coarse and fine salt on Keto Diet is used
You’ll often see pink salt included when reading up on the dos and don’ts of the Keto diet. By and large, this is because it is filled with important minerals ranging from calcium and potassium and is less refined when compared to white salt. Crucially, it keeps your sodium levels up, avoiding flu-like symptoms and muscle cramps while on the relatively strict diet.
Alongside a healthy and balanced diet, there is thought to be a benefit in using pink salt for weight loss. The World Journal of Pharmaceutical Research have previously claimed that pink salt contains up to 84 of the 94 trace minerals needed by the body, helping form a healthier lifestyle.
Which is better, pink salt or white salt? Is pink salt healthy?
Pink salt might be a touch more expensive but does offer much more in the way of versatility. White salt is worth having in the cupboard or pantry, pink salt is what you should spend your money on. It also lacks anti-caking agents, giving rise to claims that it’s healthier than common table salt. But there’s no scientific basis for these claimed health benefits.
