It is a pure salt formed millions of years ago, thanks to the high pressures on the rocks that occurred in the Himalayan mountains. The higher the pressure, the higher the crystal structure, and this mountain range made the crystal lattice of Himalayan salt perfect. It possesses greater purity than other halite salts from other mountains, and other minerals. It can be seen in this transparent version, similar to the diamond.

The transparent white color of the Himalayan salt derives from some particular salt crystals from this region, which do not have the minerals present in some veins (iron oxide), which give a more rosy color.
Himalayan halite salt was formed about 250 million years ago, after heat dried up the primordial sea from which it derives. It is pristine and natural, identical in composition to the ancient ocean, now enclosed in the Himalayan mountain range. The principle of high pressure that transforms carbon into diamond also created halite salt from rock salt; he transformed it into almost transparent white crystals, which show a perfect cubic shape. According to a legend, the discovery of salt deposits in the Himalayas dates back to the time of Alexander the Great. In fact, the first news of extraction dates back to the thirteenth century, in medieval times. Much of the Himalayan salt is extracted from the Khewra mine in Pakistan, which is located at the foot of a hilly system called the Salt Range. Like many other types of salt, this “salt diamond” halite also has a history linked to purification and health rituals.

It was considered capable of rebalancing the fluids in the body, regulating the intestine and giving energy. It has great detoxifying power. Currently, salt extraction takes place partly with manual tools, partly with mechanical ones - it depends on the areas of the mines. The Himalayan Diamond Halite Salt is extracted and washed by hand, and then dried in the sun.

It can be used in any recipe, both as a salt for the absorption of water in vegetables, and as a finish. When choosing to salt the meat before grilling, remember that this brings the natural juices to the surface, creating a salty external crust.
