Additional Notes on Coarse Salt

While Real Salt’s coarse sea salt (such as the 16 oz. pouch or 25 lb. bag) is unrefined and mineral-rich, its large grain size is typically used in grinders and is less suited for canning or fermenting where salt needs to dissolve quickly. Coarse salt is better for finishing dishes or grinding fresh salt onto foods.
