Description

Taste SUZU SHIO, premium sea salt from the Noto Peninsula, Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan. You will be amazed by its distinctive flavor. This is a true sea salt packed with natural minerals that provide bitterness, sweetness, slight acidity and, of course, saltiness. SUZU SHIO is a rich and full tasting sea salt and is one of the best from Japan. SUZU SHIO sea salt is made by a very unique process that was developed at Shinkai Shio Sangyo Company. The clean collected salt water is sprayed over bamboo blinds, which are hung from the ceiling and reach to the floor. While the salt water runs down along the blinds, some moisture evaporates. The collected salt water at the bottom is re-sprayed again toward the bamboo blinds. Repetition of this process eventually produces saturated salt water. This is then transferred to a large stainless steel pot--about 7 feet in diameter--and crystallized over a gentle wood fire for the next two days.
