What it is
Sea salt is salt produced by evaporating seawater. It is harvested from oceans around the world. The process typically involves channeling seawater into large, shallow ponds where the sun and wind evaporate the water, leaving behind salt crystals.
Why it's used
Sea salt is primarily used as a flavor enhancer and seasoning in a wide variety of foods. Its mineral content can contribute subtle flavor differences compared to refined salt. It is commonly found in processed foods like ketchup, mustard, sauces, and pasta dishes.
Health notes
Sea salt is recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a food ingredient. Like all salt, it is a source of sodium, and high sodium intake is linked to increased blood pressure. JECFA has evaluated salt and has not specified a numerical ADI. The World Health Organization recommends limiting sodium intake for cardiovascular health.
Allergen info
Sea salt is not a major allergen and does not contain gluten. It is derived from seawater and does not typically contain allergens.
