Within the Hawaiian Islands, the island of Molokai is the least developed meaning nearly no industrial pollution affects the purity of the local waters. Seawater is mixed with local red alaea clay and dried inside of a custom designed solar evaporator which leaves the large salt crystals intact and retains the valuable trace minerals and electrolytes. Molokai salt is bottled under supervision of members of the Salt Masters Guild of Hawaii. Red salt is used in traditional Hawaiian dishes such as poke and pipikaula. Although the dominant flavor of these crystals is pure salt, sensitive palates may discern a slightly sweet finish from the added iron oxide-rich clay.

Bought this salt to make Nom Nom Paleo's Kalua Pig. It was fantastic. Going to find other recipes to make with this salt.

One of our favorites!
We first bought the Hawaiian Red salt last spring, and we have already reordered another batch. It is well suited to lots of foods, and we especially like to use it on roasted vegetables.
