Quick Reference
What is it?: A Hawaiian-style sea salt blended with finely powdered volcanic black ash.
Flavour: A direct salt flavour with a faint mineral, smoky-looking character from the dark ash.
Common uses: Crush lightly and use as a dramatic finishing salt or decorative contrast on pale foods.
Pairs well with: Eggs, seafood, avocado, rice, vegetables and plated starters.
Compare with: More visual and mineral in character than ordinary sea salt, with black crystals designed to stand out on the plate.
Substitute: Black lava-style salt is the closest replacement; plain sea salt will season but not provide the colour.
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: The black appearance comes from volcanic ash infused through the crystals, so it is best used where the colour can remain visible.
