Steenbergs Indian Black Salt - 100g

Experience the distinctive, deeply traditional flavors of India with Steenbergs Indian Black Salt (Kala Namak). Sourced and packed by the artisan family-run spice merchants in North Yorkshire, England, this premium mineral salt is celebrated across South Asia for its highly unique culinary properties. Though named "black salt," it features a beautiful, naturally complex dusky pinkish-grey hue when ground. Kala Namak is famous for its unique sulfurous aroma and rich, savory flavor profile that mimics the exact taste of boiled eggs. An indispensable pantry staple for authentic North Indian cuisine, plant-based creators, and vegan chefs alike, it is packed in its purest form with absolutely zero chemical flowing agents, anti-caking additives, or artificial flavorings.

Directions

Culinary Uses: Ready to use as a finishing salt, seasoning agent, or flavor enhancer. Because its distinct aroma is heat-sensitive, it is best added toward the end of cooking or used as a table condiment.

• Essential Vegan Egg Substitute: Sprinkle a light pinch over scrambled tofu, vegan omelets, chickpea flour pudlas, or dairy-free mayonnaise to instantly replicate a convincing, rich egg flavor.

• Authentic Indian Street Food: Mix into traditional spice blends like Chaat Masala, or dust lightly over street-style fruit salads, fried snacks (pakoras and samosas), and cooling raitas.

• Tangy Summer Drinks: Stir a tiny pinch into refreshing, traditional cooling beverages like Jal Jeera, salty Lassi, or homemade nimbu pani (Indian-style lemonade) to introduce an authentic, savory depth.

• Savory Chutneys & Pickles: Use to balance and intensify the complex flavors of homemade mango chutneys, sharp lime pickles, and spicy raitas.

Note: Due to its high natural mineral and sulfur content, a little goes a long way. Start with a tiny pinch and adjust to your specific taste preferences.

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the container tightly sealed to protect the salt from absorbing ambient kitchen moisture and clumping naturally.
