Hawaiian Alaea Sea Salt, sometimes called Hawaiian Red Sea Salt, is a combination of sea salt harvested from the Pacific Ocean around the islands & an iron oxide-rich baked volcanic clay called Alaea, that gives it this stunning red colour. Hawaiian Alaea Sea Salt offers two things: colour & mellowness. The unique terracotta-like colour makes a huge impression on a dish, showing off your hard work in the kitchen or over the grill. The clay itself adds a mellowness to the usual tang of sea salt, making it feel less bitingly saline & more approachable. It can be used either as a cooking or finishing salt, but with the awesome colour, we prefer to use it for finishing & have enjoyed it on everything from popcorn & rice dishes, to grilled lobster & russet potatoes. Be sure to add it just prior to serving if you want the biggest visual pop. It’s also pretty spectacular in all sorts of meat rubs, with the mellow minerality & moisture-sealing characteristics of clay helping to keep your preferred cut of meat in tip top shape as you cook.
