My favorite is none that you spoke of. Switched to Redmond's Real Salt (mined in the mountains near Redmond, Utah) years ago, and love the flavor it brings to our food. Available in a few different grind sizes for various uses. Give it a try. Let us know your thoughts.
Just got mine today. I am going to follow up in a couple of weeks. Thanks!
@@AwareHouseChefhow did you like it?
@@LovingSoul61 loved it. I did do a follow up video on it. Cheers

I liked the taste of Redmond but had to stop bc it was like chewing little pieces of sand in my food. :(
Hello Chef. I have been in the mine in Pakistan and believe me I found peace. The salt has 30 to 60 trace minerals and does not raise the blood pressure to much. You have touch my heart liking Pakistani salt. I was moved. Please Take care dear Chef. Peace. Zeena
All the best!!
I have lots of pink himalayan salt all over. I use it in a respirator. It helps shorten the life of a cold and it kills germs I believe. Plus I use it as a salt rock diffuser. It kills germs. Then at the table. It does actually help fight off colds and helps with allergies.
@@AwareHouseChef I bought some grey celtic salt. Still trying to discern the taste still. Thanks for the video. I especially like it. Very informative.
Lol
Awesome lesson!!!!
Many years ago, I was a chemistry major in college. I also worked in a lab. One day, we sent out for lunch, and I ordered a sub. Problem is, it needed salt, and there was none in the lab. There was, however, reagent grade NaCl. Thinking there was no difference in flavor, I used that - only to be educated by Mother Nature. It tasted VERY bad. I would compare it to drinking distilled water. So yes. There are differences between salts!
Thank you for sharing that. All the best!
@ihbarddx
That sounds like one of those things that seemed like a good idea at the time! Yeah, I've not done that with salt but sure have with other things. That comes under the heading of Live and Learn!
Love this, Celtic sea salt is my fave, too!
Thank you for being honest!
At one point in history, salt was worth more than gold because you could survive (by preserving your food, as stated in the video) with salt and not with gold! 🧂
That's where the saying worth your salt came from
Absolutely, as I understand it the Romans paid their military in salt. So, it was considered that you were paid your worth in salt.
@@bluesky6985 quite right
I think it was pepper that was worth it’s weight in gold. Anyone with access to an ocean can make salt. But pepper came from the Far East ONLY.
@@samiam619 Do you know how long it takes to make salt from sea water? If you don't live near the ocean transporting it becomes a problem.
The only salt that doesn't make my legs swell is Himalayan pink salt and Celtic sea salt. The rest I stay away from
All sea salt has micro plastic meanwhile. The Celtic one has as well high Aluminium, good for Alzheimer, if you want to forget earlier
Lowering salt consumption also makes legs swell less. You should check that problem at specialist because your legs shouldn't be that visibly affected by salt, it could be vein, lymph or even kidney problem at early stages and some of those problems can become very nasty if keep progressing.
@@josiahrandolphbaldwin8272 they need to check out K2 .
@@josiahrandolphbaldwin8272 would increasing calcium consumption in an elderly person with congestive heart failure and high blood pressure help keep swelling down out of the legs and feet?
@@josiahrandolphbaldwin8272 Wow, thank you for this information. I will start incorporating vitamin k and calcium into their diet. I read that when given 1,000mg of calcium per day should help with water retention. I will also check which foods are high in vitamin k as well. Blessings!

I recently discovered Maldon sea salt flakes and I love it. I use so little, it is not a significant cost to me. I've tried many high end Mediterranean sea salts over the decades, and nowadays I just use Malden as it is so clearly well manufactured and clean. It is made in Maldon, Essex, UK.
It is a wonderful salt that I like to use for finishing. Thanks for sharing!
I also love Maldon. It make everything taste better. I use it as my cooking salt. It makes soup, potatoes, etc. taste so much better!

I will never buy regualr table salt, again. I am so glad I watched this video.
I JUST had bought a new container of table salt... it has dextrose and that other crap in it. Dammit.
All natural salts have trace amounts of heavy metals including lead, mercury, arsenic and uranium to name a few. So what's more harmful, dextrose or carcinogenic heavy metals? If I were a health nut and wanted to live as long as possible I would choose the purest form personally.

Hawaiian here 🌺 I really appreciate your information on salt, knowledge is power. As a foodie and Island Natural buyer, I would like to say that we cooks that make Hawaiian Plates only use traditional home made white, red or black salts. It’s bought in local stores, not supermarkets or grocery stores ( or Costco). Celtic salt is one of my favorites too and real Hawaiian salt is very similar. Aloha too all ❣️

It looked as though if you substitute regular salt for Kosher salt, then halving the quantity would be just about right (better yet, slightly less than half). According to your measure, the regular weighed about twice as much as the Kosher.
The Celtic salt was an interesting read as far as mineral composition goes. The natural balance of Sodium to Potassium is somewhat similar to what we need in our bodies, since we need more Potassium than we normally get. Many sports drinks also supply much more Sodium and do little to replenish Potassium. Nice variety of trace minerals too.
Morton makes a "Lite Salt Mixture", which has Iodine, but is about a 50/50 mix of Sodium salt and Potassium salt. Unfortunately, it does contain the declumping agents as well, but it's a healthier mix than regular Sodium salt.
I never knew listening to a Salt lecture would b so informative.....excellent and refreshing .Good job sir

The pink Himalayan sea salt is actually from an ancient ocean, which was pushed upwards when two tectonic plates collided forming the Himalayan mountains. Not that unusual, it's why you might spot fossilized seashells, if you ever go into the Grand Canyon.
... Or pools of evaporated sea water from a worldwide flood. Like the noah story that every continent seems to have a legend about. Either or. The earth is kinda ancient so who knows for sure. : /
That's Amazing. ALL of it formed from the BIBLICAL ACCOUNT of NOAH'S FLOOD. Confirmation!!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂Delusional
That's why there's iodine in it!!
There was a VAST inland sea in the middle of the US/Canada 200k years ago (or so, DON’T quote me) Here in N. Michigan we also have fossilized sea creatures. Mostly in what was mud/clay but solidified into rock.
Useful and enjoyable presentation. Thanks.
Thank you Tom!! All the best!!
I've tried regular mortons, various "sea" salts, I like himalayan, but recently came across the Fleur de Sel, wow! "finishing" salt? Who knew (not me). Feel so "sophisticated" sprinkling a pinch on everything ;-) Great taste and love the soft crunch. Have to try the Celtic next?
Yea! Same family of salts. Yours is a very expensive salt and it is delicious. You can make your own. Check out Alex the French guys website. He show you how to make it. Cheers!
Just don’t buy Fleur de Sel (meaning ’flower of salt’) from the mediterreanian. The mediterranian sea is polluted, so is your salt. Celtic salt is supposed to be clean. For as much as any sea is still clean. I only use Himalayan, deep from under the mountains and pure, packed with minerals, not found in other salts. And I absolutely LOVE the taste of it! On top of that, here in Europe it’s cheaper than the ’famous’ sea salts. Works perfect for me! 😂
@MaggieGoossens interesting your comment on Mediterranean salt being polluted. Any reference? From looking, it’s reported the Atlantic, Pacific are polluted and to seek salt from the Mediterranean. Iodized salt is done to a lot of “sea salt” so buyers beware. Iodized is not the same as iodine. Love all this global trade barriers free? So many Corp chemicals, every year over a decade ago, Govs were approving on ave 2000 new ones every year. God Bless our food to thy use.

Simply awesome..... well done & full of knowledge
Thank you Shawn!All the best!
I like the kosher salt in his display for cooking... you can add it slowly... it also crumbles in your fingers so it becomes finer for sprinkling on popcorn

I’ve eaten Pakistani pink salt since 2018. I researched it and found it comes from a salt range in Pakistan just below the Himalayas. This is one of the marketing lies I refuse to be a part of. I have never tried Celtic sea salt. I’m heading to Amazon to order some. Thank you for taking the time to share your salt expertise. 🙂
My pleasure and thank you! Please let me know how you like it
What marketing lies are you talking about?
@bobby altman The pink salt doesn’t come from the Himalayan mountain range.
@@cindytennessee I and many people know it's from the mountains of Pakistan, you didn't understand my initial question
@bobby atman Okay
Thanks for the run down, appreciated. IMHO, The Diamond Kosher is the most versatile salt on the table. ( finishing , cooking, baking or seasoning anything) When added to boiling water ( eg. for pasta ) it's the only one that will dissolve almost instantly, many of the others will just sink to the bottom of the pot and take time to dissolve, not sure why that is but I'd guess it's one reason why restaurants use it. Also there are no additives at all. Its a medium coarse grain perfect for finishing and as you mentioned, not too salty. The best part is cost. Its a fraction of the price of most of the others The packaging is a simple cardboard box. Some of the others have plastic bags, or caps that don't recycle well.
Glad to be of service! Cheers!
I use Diamond Crystal Kosher salt also. I have to order it from Amazon as most of our local grocery stores and Costco only carry Morton’s Kosher salt. Since they’re not the same and I dont need to learn how to season again, I’ll stay with Diamond Crystal Kosher salt!
I read an article that said either Himalayan pink salt or Celtic sea salt were the best. Lol, I decided on Himalayan. Will try Celtic next time.
I remember the balancing trick with that exact type of salt shaker. Once you got it to balance, you blew away all the excess salt, and just a couple of grains would be holding it in place
Good times David. Cheers!
Thanks for such an interesting video... I learned a lot I didn't know about salt... You have a great personality. Keep up the good work. SHALOM!
Many thanks Vee! All the best!
Now I know why you use Celtic Sea Salt! I always wanted to ask you why? This was very informative! Going to buy some! Thanks! Happy New Year to you and the family!
Thanks Shannon! Love that stuff!! Happy New Year!!
I always grew up using that blue that little girl with the umbrella on it still use that this day the key is to slow down on usage and eventually replace with a better seasoning to me🤔🤷🏽♀️😊
Have you tried "Real Salt" yet? A lot of people seem to love that one. It's priced and looks much like the Celtic salt. I love how you used tomatoes to test it. Tomatoes and cucumbers really shine with salt.
It's my go to salt, Celtic salt here in Canada is way more expensive but I did enjoy the taste so I can understand why the chef recommended it.
@@adriand6477 I'm using the Real Salt as my fine granular. I use it together with celtic on my tomatoes. The flavor is amazing. The finishing salts I find are best on meats, fish, and anything cooked with them.
I use Redmonds Real Salt. Has as many minerals that the seasalt and celtic salt has

I lived on the island of Crete for a few years and I miss it so much. I learned all about oregano, olives and the olive oil made directly by my landlord. He owned his olive orchard and grape vineyard.....geeze I was spoiled. The seafood was always cooked to perfection. I am going to try the Celtic Salt
Please let me know how you like it and thank you for sharing!
Best thing I learned, which should have been obvious actually, is not to measure coarse and fine salts by volume, expecting the same results in recipes. I am learning pressure canning, from the best sources, but I may well have made this mistake.
I have been buying "pickling salt" to use cooking, and just grinding some of it fine for sprinkling.
The reason salt is called pickling salt is simply because it doesn't add cloudy chemicals to your pickles.
Correct, that salt is important for pickling. That chemical is IODINE, ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY IN YOUR BODY, BY THE THYROID GLAND ETC. SO YOU NEED IT IN OTHER FOODS
Oh wow I didn't know that about pickling salt. Thanks for sharing 👍
@@xxkissmeketutxx There seems to be a lot of recipe books that do not tell you what grind they use. The odd book tells you straight away. For American canning books, they usually call "pickling salt" the finer grind. In Canada most "pickling salt" I have seen is a coarse grind.
Had I not realized this, I would have been using half as much salt, when using American canning recipes.
I have tried everything you have, except for the Greek salt. But there is another you don't have listed - Kalahari Desert salt. I picked a pound up a few years ago, and it is my favorite salt, even more than the Celtic and Himalayan. If you find any authentic, try it, and see what you think. I use the Celtic salt more as a finishing salt for meats, and Himalayan as my go-to daily salt. But for something where I want the salt to lift the flavor on a simple, single-item food, (tomatoes, hard-boiled eggs, avocado, watermelon, fresh cucumber, etc...) the Kalahari is my go-to.
I used to love Kalas but they’ve doctored it with crap recently.

Thank you for the awesome demonstration.
You are very welcome. Your kindness is much appreciated! Cheers!
Great video. It's worth mentioning that "Celtic" is just the brand. The actual salt is harvested in Bretagne (the French Atlantic coast) and many more brands are available - both cooperatives like Sel de Noirmoutier, Les Saunier d'Île de Ré or Le Guérandais (which is the French sea salt you've linked to) - and smaller, independent producers. You'll find them everywhere on the French west coast - two examples are Marais Mounet or Salines de Millac. It's super fun to geek out on this and try differents salts, and really admire the craft of these salt harvesters.
Super awesome of you to mention David! Thank you for reaching out! I have had tried many gray salts and I wondered if they were of the same type as Celtic . If you have a chance, watch my follow up video about micro plastics. Redmond salt actually gives kudos to Celtic sea salt. All the best!
To say it's just a brand is a bit misleading, Brittany is one of the few places in Europe which has maintained a Celtic culture, along with Wales and Ireland. Culturally it has many similarities with Wales. Also Brittany, at least since the time of Julius Caesar and the Gallic Wars has had strong naval traditions.

I've been using Celtic Sea Salt for years because it tastes so good. Definitely not harsh like regular table salt. I use the regular salt, not the fine ground. I bought a salt grinder for when I need it finer.
Glad we’re on the same page Kristen! Love the stuff! All the best.
I use Kalas for light salting (salads) as it’s a milder salt. Black salt for hard boiled eggs and tequila shots. Himalayan pink for pretty much anything but it’s especially good in Indian and Thai cooking. Iodized salt for cooking soups. Now I have to try Celtic salt. What a great salt lesson! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Diane!! Glad you enjoyed it. Let me know how you like it
@@AwareHouseChef I like it very much. It’s really good with sliced tomatoes and sautéed vegetables.
Thank you sir for this informative video. After viewing, I went through my cabinet to look at the ingredients of my salt inventory. Found "yellow prussiate of soda" in the Morton Mediterranean Sea Salt Fine and the Morton Coarse Kosher Salt. Both are now sitting at the bottom of my trash can. Many thanks!
I think it's the accumulation of theses seemingless insignificant additives are not so insignificant in the long run. Wishing you all the best!
I used to work in the Cargil salt plant, in Newark CA. You should take a tour there. The salt is "farmed".
Tricalcium Phosphate, Calcium Carbonate, Magnesium Carbonate, and Yellow Prussiate of soda (YPS), is what is used as an anti caking agent at Cargil Salt.
Yup, I still remember when Perrier water was recalled because they didn't get the recipe right
What dyou expect with the name Cargill? Synonymous with very bad "food"
Thank you for the video!! I’m going to give it a try!
Great! My pleasure! Thank you for reaching out!
Himalayan salt is my 'everyday' salt. We also have the moist grey Celtic sea salt and it has a very delicious, ocean brine taste to it. We find it *very* salty, so a little goes a long way, and it does exactly what fish sauce does to dishes. It gives a hint of 'ocean' flavor. Probably why it tastes so good on seafood! We keep the Celtic sea salt in a ceramic salt grinder, which is a must because the moist salt would turn any regular steel shaker or grinder to rust in a heartbeat. We have a wooden salt cellar on our kitchen table filled with Maldon salt for sprinkling on food as we eat. It gives a delicious salty crunch to anything and is especially good on meat and vegetables.
Thanks for sharing!
Or, rose quartz.
Christine.......I didn't know about keeping the celtic sea salt in a ceramic salt grinder. Going to get both today and thanks for the other great tips with your salt usage.
I don't know what all the hype about Himalayan pink salt is; it's just rose quartz/halite (rock salt).
Himalayan Salt contains heavy metals - Send some of for analysis you’ll find it is laden
First time seeing you. I subscribed and will tell my family members and friends. Thank you for all the great information. It was quite interesting. I use Himalayan Pink Salt and Kosher, my next Amazon order will include Celtic Sea Salt!
I appreciate it Sandra! Thank you for sharing! Let me know how you like the Celtic Sea salt. All the best!
@@AwareHouseChef my first time with you as well. Can’t wait until tomorrow (it’s 2 am) to see more videos of yours. 64 y.o. newly retired truck driver that wants to learn how to cook. Wife still works...
@@samiam619 thank you Sam. I appreciate you saying that. Let me know what interests you. Cheers!
@@AwareHouseChef Hi, this is Sandra. I bought the Celtic sea salt you recommended and I use it baking, cooking and at the table. It makes a difference in taste. Thank you for your information and introduction.
@@sandragoslinszanto2191 thanks for reporting back to me! I'm so glad that it worked out. I wish you all the best!
Thanks for such a special comparison video.
Thank you for your kindness Cliff! Appreciate you reaching out. All the best!
Great video. I just ordered from your link some of that Celtics sea salt to try. Sounds yummy.
Thank you Frank. I appreciate the kindness and that you reached out. Let me know how you like the salt. All the best!
As a nurse I found this very informative. I prefere Himalayan because I need the iodine. Thank you for posting.
Thanks kathy! I appreciate the kindness! I'm finding out more and more that salt that is extracted from a mine is healthier than salt that is extracted from the sea because of microplastics. I'm doing a lot more research on that now.
Nascent Iodine on Amazon is a good supplement
The problem with Iodinized salt is... if you are deficient ..you need to consume to much salt to get it...in America iodine was put in bread ..but commercial bakeries replaced iodine with bromides...decades ago ..Australia recently ban bromides in bread and returned to iodine...as a study showed increased obesity and lower IQ in school age children..now I bake my own bread with King Arthur organic bread flour it’s bromide free...and had taken Nasent Iodine for 2 years..in that time I lost 42 lbs without trying..Bromides were used to treat seizure disorders in the 60s but they stopped using it because it’s retained..
The salt must flow! Stay salty!😉
reeeeeeeeeee
REEEEeeeee
I came across the different types of salt, versus the white refined salt that is said to be dangerous due to extrem heating, and added anti clumping agent etc. So I have for the last 14 years basically stuck with Pink Himalaya salt, Black Himalaya salt, Balinese Seasalt that I bought straight from the little business on the beach in South East of Bali. Then I had some black Indian salt some years ago. Now in my humble room in Thailand I have also Thai Sea salt, and Lunn Desert salt summer harvest from Northern India. I also tried the Real Salt from Utah, very nice. Yummy and healthy stuff!
Thank you for sharing! I found out so much after I released this video that I did a follow up. Sounds like you love salt as much as me. Hope it is informative ua-cam.com/video/Wt3ZUC2Meuo/v-deo.html
A fool and their money are soon parted.
You BETTA teach Chef. Thank you for this video!💯💯💯💯
Thank YOU!
I find Himalayan salt to be saltier (double) than iodine salt.
Me too. Maybe Bc it’s chunky?
I find that also to be true. Especially if your cooking with the bigger grains, I use less.
I put mine in a grinder then use less.
Funny I find the opposite, after using Himalayan for several years other salts are too salty.
Thank you I got the same conclusion about 10 years ago and I just using Celtic salt since than 👍
You're welcome. Thank you!
You're a hoot. Love your straightforward demeanor. Yes Celtic Salt. This may sound out there but I dowse my salts. Celtic salt and Pink Himalayan always come out best for me.
Many thanks!! I appreciate you reaching out! Cheers!
Great video and great lesson as well.
Thank you Bob! All the best!
Watched the whole thing and learned a little bit. Very entertaining. I'll stick with iodized salt but will try to avoid additives and just user rice for anti caking.
Thank you!! Cheers!
A recent video with a medical specialist pointed out that added iodide in salt was not necessarily used by the body in a healthy way but the light amount of naturally found iodine in Himalayan salt is, so I am going to try the Himalayan salt instead 🤷🏼♀️
Looking forward to trying the celtic. Maldons crunch is a fav finishing salt, the black salt is good for adding color like a touch on desert cream
It does not disappoint! I love it! All the best!
Thanks for the great info!
My pleasure!
I don’t know your work, but I did enjoy the presentation and thought that it was pretty impressive the way you could tell the salt blindfolded.
The first time I saw a toxin on the side of the salt container, that particular salt went off any future shopping list, and the container I had was only good for salting the sidewalk out front in winter.
I was not aware that the yellow Prussiate ingredient which occasionally shows up and disqualifies no brand of salt for purchase, at least from my perspective, also had a cyanate in it.
That’s good to know and I sure appreciate it.Thank you.
My pleasure! In all fairness Celtic sea salt is pretty easy to spot out. It has a wonderful flavor. I own a restaurant and buy hundreds of pounds of it. All the best
@@AwareHouseChef : That’s another excellent point. I’ve never heard of it before your video, but fully intend to try it now as soon as I can find it. :-)
