Quick Reference
What is it?: Large natural chunks of cubic halite rock salt from ancient Pakistani deposits.
Flavour: Strong, clean and low in bitterness.
Common uses: Break down with a mortar before filling a mill, or use the chunks decoratively where appropriate.
Pairs well with: Meat, vegetables, eggs, potatoes and general savoury cooking.
Compare with: The same clean halite character as the coarse grade, but in pieces too large for many standard grinders.
Substitute: Coarse cubic halite is the direct substitute once the chunks have been broken down.
Storage: Keep sealed in a cool, dry place away from steam and moisture. For smoked or delicate finishing salts, close the pack promptly to protect their aroma and crystal texture.
Good to know: These chunks display the natural cubic crystal structure clearly; reduce them before grinding to avoid damaging a mill.
