Guest guest Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Celtic Salt: http://www.celticseasalt.com/Celtic_Sea_Salt_C3.cfm That site tells a lot about the celtic sea salt i use. Donna turned me on to it. Quite yummy, and yes, it is damp, " dirty-looking " and in quite coarse chunks. i saw Eden foods sells celtic sea salt, too and theirs is way cheaper than this fancy salt Donna sent me a sample of; which i cannot find around here. The flavor is amazing, and you hardly have to use any at all. i just grab a tiny pinch and twist/crumble it over my food. i sort of like when i get crunchy bits, but if that isn't for you then you can buy a grinder thingie, much like a pepper mill. ~ pt ~ Never regard study as a duty, but as the enviable opportunity to learn to know the liberating influence of beauty in the realm of the spirit for your own personal joy and to the profit of the community to which your later work belongs. ~ Albert Einstein (1879-1955) , " linda " <lindai81@c...> wrote: > > I have used sea salt for years, and used kosher salt in cooking as recommended in the cookbooks. Then I think someone mentioned using Celtic Sea Salt (was that you PT?) I was looking at my store yesterday and found the Celtic but it was weird looking...kind of like rock salt that you use for sidewalks that hasn't been de-dirted. And it was so damp. (maybe our weather here) There was another kind of salt that was smaller grained and less dirty looking but still looked dirty. Can anyone explain this to me? And what kind of salt, if there is any, is healthier (that is a real oxymoron actually). And then pepper...I buy mine organic...what do you all know about pepper? I use a lot of it so the pepper mills drive me batty since I would have to grind til hell froze over and that isn't useful. The organic I get is a medium grind so that is nice, but thought maybe there was something about the pepper buying that I was missing. Are there different types as in salt? Then onto coffee. I buy the shade grown, fair trade, organic coffee and then save myself some time. I grind it there at the store, but I notice that the machine heats it up during the grinding process. Doesn't this degrade the quality? But even my little grinder at home leaves the coffee warm. Anyone know about this? > linda > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I don't know if what I have is the same but the description is accurate to what I use. Bigger chunks and a bit off on color. I got it bulk at W.F.'s. It is the only salt I use in cooking now. I actually feel better about sprinkling that in instead of that table salt junk. Funny you mentioned the crunchy bits. I very rarely use this salt on food that is already prepared but I do like to sprinkle a few rocks here and there on peanut butter. You get that small bit of crunch and explosive salty flavor every now in again in the pb.
