Why does sea salt not taste as salty as regular table salt?

Answer 1

because the salt u use in the kitchen does not contain all the particals in the sea water like sodium sulphate magnesium sulphate etc because they are removed in the process of making the salt and some times the salt it cut down from deep earth and they are also cleaned by removing the toxic particles and iodised which may alter the sea water salt from earth solt altho the main component of salt is Na Cl it has other particals such as iodine and k+ irons Fe ect...

Answer 2

It is not purely Sodium Chloride as is table salt. It also contains all the minerals from the sea, and sea salt from different areas can taste differently or even have a different color. Table salt can also contain some additives not found in the sea.

Answer 3

it is the shape of the crystal. All salts we eat are made in an evaporation process. Because sea salt is evaporated from sea water it has the minerals that were present in the water. Some sea salt if further processed to make a fine sea salt. It tends to form in looser crystals than table salt which is made from salt deposits that are dissolved and pumped to the surface a little calcium silicate is added to prevent clumping and sometimes additional iodine is added.Often this brine is purified to provide the white clear salt we see as table salt. The crystals are smaller and more regular in shape and give a stronger salt taste. Kosher salt is made like table salt but the crystals are raked during formation which leave them flakier and larger. Kosher salt is not in its self kosher but used in the koshering process

Answer 4

i'm a former chef and actual advantages are no longer an argument, it does have somewhat extra hint minerals and the iodine stages are diverse. I even have used alot of the recent fad around referred to as ending salts, like the purple from Hawaii, smoked salt from Denmark, a salt orange from the Himilayian mountians, black salt from India and Fiji. As for the guy who mentioned salt is undesirable, in case you probably did no longer have salt on your nutrition or on your physique, your does not survive, all ingredients and clean veg have salt in them, the water you drink has salt in it, processed nutrition, snacks and baked products all do, if it replaced into no longer there the flavour of the sugar and different ingredients would be confusing to distigush, salt makes you style sugar and different flavours.
