Aloha Spice Company — 'Alaea Red Hawaiian Sea Salt, Coarse (4.76 oz Pouch)

Coarse 'alaea red salt in a pouch, for the cook who uses it by the handful.

'Alaea salt is Hawaiian sea salt mixed with 'alaea, a red volcanic clay rich in iron oxide. Hawaiians have used it for centuries for cooking, preserving and ceremony. The clay turns the salt brick-red and gives it a mellow, earthy minerality that is softer than plain sea salt. This is the coarse grind in a resealable pouch, the right form for salting a pork shoulder for kalua pig, seasoning poke, brining, or filling your own grinder or salt cellar.

Who this is for

• Cooking Hawaiian dishes like kalua pork, poke and lomi salmon
• Anyone who wants a mineral-rich unrefined salt for the cellar
• Brines, rubs and big roasts that need salt by the tablespoon
• Refilling the 'Alaea grinder

Details

• Ingredients: sea salt, 'alaea Hawaiian red clay
• 4.76 oz resealable stand-up pouch, coarse grind
• Store sealed, away from steam
