Best Salt for Everyday Seasoning: Top Real Salt Options

Best Salt for Everyday Seasoning

When it comes to seasoning your meals daily, choosing the right salt can elevate your cooking with natural flavor and essential minerals. Real Salt offers a range of unrefined, ancient sea salts that retain over 60 naturally-occurring trace minerals, providing a unique taste and wholesome seasoning experience. Below are some of the best options for everyday use, each designed to suit different preferences and kitchen needs.

Fine Grain Salts: Versatile and Popular for Daily Use

Real Salt Fine 26 oz Pouch

This fine sea salt is the most popular grain size from Real Salt, making it ideal for everyday seasoning. Its fine texture dissolves quickly, perfect for boiling water, baking, and sprinkling on finished dishes. Because it is unrefined and never chemically treated, it delivers a natural flavor enriched with trace minerals. The 26 oz refill pouch is a practical choice for those who want to reduce waste by reusing shakers.

Real Salt Fine 10 oz Shaker

For convenient kitchen or table use, the 10 oz refillable shaker offers the same fine grain salt in a handy size. It’s great for seasoning food on the fly, baking, or adding a finishing touch to your meals. The shaker keeps your salt fresh and easy to pinch or sprinkle.

Real Salt® Fine Bulk (25 lb.)

If you prefer to keep a large supply of fine salt on hand, this 25 lb bag is perfect. It maintains the same unrefined quality and mineral content, making it a versatile staple for seasoning, baking, and even canning or pickling. The salt never expires and can be stored in the bag or transferred to a container. Natural clumping may occur, but proper storage helps maintain freshness.

Real Salt® Fine Pocket Shaker (0.21 oz.)

For seasoning on the go, this pocket-sized shaker contains about 1 ¼ teaspoons of fine Real Salt. It’s refillable and about the size of a lip balm, making it easy to carry in purses, backpacks, or pockets. Ideal for those who want the distinctive flavor of Real Salt wherever they eat.

Kosher Salt: Medium Grain for Meat and More

Real Salt Kosher Pouch (16 oz)

This kosher salt features medium-sized grains slightly larger than fine salt, making it especially effective for seasoning meat. Its grain size helps draw out proteins that enhance caramelization, improving the texture and flavor of grilled or roasted meats. It’s also excellent for vegetables, edamame, and even cocktails like margaritas. The 16 oz refill pouch supports sustainable use by allowing you to refill your shakers.

Real Salt Kosher Shaker (10 oz)

For easy use in the kitchen or at the table, the 10 oz kosher salt shaker offers the same benefits in a refillable container. Its medium grains are perfect for pinching and tossing, favored by chefs for seasoning meat and vegetables alike.
All Real Salt products are unrefined, ancient sea salts exactly as nature made them, containing over 60 trace minerals and never processed or chemically treated. This ensures a pure, natural flavor that enhances every meal.
