Organic Kala Namak (Rock Salt), Sudh Sattvic (1kg)
Rock salt is also known as sendha namak in Hindi. The other common name for it is halite. It was first discovered in 1844 in England, where local prospectors were originally searching for coal.
Rock salt is a naturally occurring rock formed by the evaporation of salty water. In the geological past, large bodies of water evaporated and formed enormous deposits of rock salt. Therefore, rock salt is found all over the world in the form of deposits ringing dry lake beds, marginal inland seas, enclosed bays and estuaries in the arid regions of the world.
Rock salt is devoid of environmental pollutants and chemical components, which makes it the purest form of salt.
It is different from the regular table salt because it is rock rather than a mineral and rock salt is naturally found in a solid form. Unlike regular salt, which is iodized, rock salt is more granular with large chunky crystals and is not chemically processed.
