re: Is there any benefit to using Himalayan pink salt?

I use pink salt in a grinder that grinds it pretty coarse. That’s great on steak and baked potatoes or whatever can handle big crunchy chunks of salt. I’ve also got some in a finer grain which is just okay. It’s nothing special out of a shaker. But I got it to salt the rim of a cocktail glass and it works just dandy for that. I was making greyhounds with pink grapefruit juice and figured it would look good to use pink salt and turn ‘em into pink salty dogs. That was a winner.

Salt is iodized to prevent iodine deficiency. Morton’s is not hipster salt, boomer.

I believe the thread is about Himalayan pink salt, millidiot.

It is and I told OP that if it doesn’t have iodine then they need to get their iodine from somewhere. That’s then you called me a hipster. Oh look it’s time for Wheel of Fortune, grandpa

I heard you can use this to cure meat. I want to make some bacon, is this correct?

No, curing salt is something different. It has an artificial pink color and is not the same thing. Don’t try curing your pork belly with Himalayan pink salt and don’t sprinkle curing salt on your steak.

Thanks for the reply; I've read contradicting stuff about this. I am in Europe and as far as I know, real curing salt is hard to come by. Have a good one!

Why are you so concerned about iodine?

"Iodine is one of the most common nutrient deficiencies and is estimated to affect 35–45% of the world's population. Iodine deficiency is the most common cause of goiter and worldwide is estimated to affect 2.2 billion people.
Iodine is needed to make the thyroid hormones thyroxine and triiodothyronine, which assist with the creation of proteins and enzyme activity, as well as regulating normal metabolism."

I think the Sam's grinder of pink salt just tastes better than the Morton's table salt we have in the cupboard. Might just be in my mind but the Morton's has a chemical taste after having the pink.

If the Moton's is iodized it is not just in your mind.
