Himalayan pink salt, a natural salt sourced from the Khewra Salt Mine in Pakistan, is known for its distinctive pink color due to trace minerals like iron. Its mineral content includes sodium chloride, magnesium, potassium, and calcium, contributing to its unique flavor. It is used in cooking and as a finishing salt, and some people believe it may have health benefits due to its mineral content. Natural pink salt crystals come in coarse, fine, and decorative forms, and are widely available in grocery stores, specialty food stores, and online.
