Its potent mineral-rich composition means a small amount delivers big taste, making it a must-have staple for adventurous, health-conscious cooks seeking to elevate their culinary game. ## Description Product description Cooking Inspiration Mineral Salt Kosher Natural Black kala namak is also known as sanchal, kala loon and black lava salt. Naturally derived from volcanic mines in Northern India and Pakistan and from surrounding salt lakes, black salt has been a staple in South Asian diets for centuries. In its rock form, black salt is typically brown in color, but when ground up, it becomes a pinkish-grey color. Due to the iron-oxides in the salt, its coloring can deepen to a dark reddish-brown when added to foods. Ingredients Salt. Directions See Label Safety Warning See label Review: Excellent Eggy Flavor - Only a tiny amount of this black salt is needed to provide an egg-like flavor for plant based dishes such as scrambles & omelets made from chickpea flour, split mung beans, tofu and other plant derived bases. Even sprinkling on shredded potato veggie skillets and stir fries adds an eggy flavor. Spice Lab products have always served our family well and this high quality black salt (kala namak) is no exception. Because so little is needed to impart an egg flavor I expect the 4 oz. bottle I purchased will last a very long time, possibly beyond its 2027 expiration date. Thank you, Spice Lab! Update in February 2024: My family and I still love this brand of kala namak black salt the best, having sampled other brands used by friends. Our friends have now switched to using the Spice Lab brand after trying Spice Lab, too! This is high quality kala namak and we use it so often in our household that when I order I buy the biggest bag I can find on desertcart and refill my 4 oz. bottles from there. Color of the salt granules (which look like ground pepper) may vary a little from bag to bag, but the flavor has remained consistent. In addition to the dishes I mentioned in my original review, we now add a tiny sprinkle to vegan potato salad to simulate egg salad for sandwiches, and with a bit of vegan mayo and mustard on top of plain steamed potatoes to simulate deviled eggs. With a spoon or melon baller you can even scoop a bit of potato from the center of half of a cooked potato to mix with vegan mayo and mustard, add the smooth mixture back to the potato half and top with this salt to make it look like deviled eggs, as well. And even plain toast can be sprinkled with kala namak and served with a bit of maple syrup to simulate French toast! The key to the best results is to sprinkle a tiny amount of this salt on top of the food, not to mix it in or cook with it. Even the Spice Lab label will tell you that, so pay attention to this advice in order to get the best results. Start with a light dose and increase only if needed. After all, you can’t easily removed the salt if you add too much; you can always add more to suit individual taste. Subtle is usually more pleasing than strong. 🙂 Review: Great product - Love this product great for vegans. The taste is mild, eggs and not too salty. ## Features - Cooking Inspiration - Mineral Salt - Kosher - Natural ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00IQV4UKG | | Age Range Description | All Ages | | Best Sellers Rank | 357,340 in Grocery ( See Top 100 in Grocery ) 253 in Flavoured Salt | | Brand | The Spice Lab | | Brand Name | The Spice Lab | | Colour | No Color | | Container Type | Jar | | Cuisine | South Asian cuisine | | Culinary Salt Type | Kala Namak | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 7,801 Reviews | | Diet Type | Vegetarian | | Flavour | Tastes like hard boiled eggs | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00846836000612 | | Item Form | Powder | | Item Highlight | Vegan Kala Namak Salt - Natural Indian Black Salt, Gluten Free - Vegan Tofu Scramble Seasoning, Natural Egg Taste | | Item Package Weight | 0.27 Kilograms | | Item Weight | 4 Ounces | | Item weight | 4 Ounces | | Manufacturer | The Spice Lab | | Model Number | 4005-4J | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Number of items | 1 | | Package weight | 0.27 Kilograms | | Part Number | ZY-EJ-DDLL-35 | | Region of Origin | Central-Asia | | Sea Salt Variety | Himalayan Black Salt | | Size | 4 g (Pack of 1) | | UPC | 846836006881 846836000612 | | Unit Count | 4.0 gram | | Unit count | 4.0 gram | ## Product Details - **Brand:** The Spice Lab - **Item weight:** 4 Ounces - **Number of items:** 1 - **Package weight:** 0.27 Kilograms - **Unit count:** 4.0 gram ## Images ![India Black Kala Namak, 4 oz (113 g), The Spice Lab - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71gAZgd5DbL.jpg) ![India Black Kala Namak, 4 oz (113 g), The Spice Lab - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81fSEj5B8wL.jpg) ![India Black Kala Namak, 4 oz (113 g), The Spice Lab - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/810Crhv2HKL.jpg) ![India Black Kala Namak, 4 oz (113 g), The Spice Lab - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71cIZZnBsgL.jpg) ![India Black Kala Namak, 4 oz (113 g), The Spice Lab - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81OPiIaH-HL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: I read that this is a good substitute for onion. Opinions?** A: I think you're thinking of hing (asafoetida). It's commonly used in Indian dishes to substitute for onions & garlic for people who don't eat them because of their Jain religion. **Q: Is this all natural or synthetic salt** A: The label says "Natural and Kosher". I will tell you that this salt has an unbelievably wonderful taste and smell. I use it very frequently on raw vegetables I eat. I highly recommend it, but my wife does not care for it. She says it is too sulfurous. Just a matter of taste. **Q: has anyone tried this as a bath salt? Supposedly this is the same component in hot springs that people soak in for pain relief?** A: YES... it is like a sulfur hot spring.. it will smell but makes a really natural mineral bath..brett **Q: It says it’s found in the Himalayan’s but does it come from there?** A: all real Himalayan salt is form Pakistan, not india, it is mined in the foothills ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Eggy Flavor *by D***R on 2 May 2023* Only a tiny amount of this black salt is needed to provide an egg-like flavor for plant based dishes such as scrambles & omelets made from chickpea flour, split mung beans, tofu and other plant derived bases.

The taste is mild, eggs and not too salty. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Makes you think you have eggs! *by C***. on 18 November 2024* If you can't eat eggs Spice Lab Kala Namak Black Salt - Indian Himalayan Black Salt gives you the taste and smell of eggs. I use it in potato salad, tofu "egg" salad and other dishes that you use hard boiled eggs to replace the egg. My husband can't eat eggs and this gives him a good substitute. It comes in a glass jar and it is fine, almost powdery. The color is kind of a pinkish with maybe a little hint of brown. And as I mentioned it does smell like sulfer! This is good salt and I will definitely buy it again. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Spice Lab Kala Namak Black Salt - Indian Himalayan Salt in French Jar - Pure Vegan Kala Namak Seasoning for Tofu Scramble - Natural Egg Taste, Gluten-Free - Bragg Premium Nutritional Yeast Seasoning - Vegan, Gluten Free – Good Source of Protein & Vitamins – Nutritious Savory Parmesan Cheese Substitute (Original, 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)) - Tofuture Tofu Press by Tofuture - The Original and Best Tofu Press.
