Himalayan salt has a milder salt avor than table salt or sea salt.
To get the full eect, it’s best to keep your other seasonings simple.
Do not sprinkle your food with table salt. The eect of the salt on
the food will depend on a variety of factors – moisture, fat content,
thickness, and the temperature of the block. Moisture in the food will
pick up salt faster, while fat will repel the salt. The hoer your block
is when you cook, the less salty your food will be and more me your
food spends on the block, the saler it will be. If you coat ingredients
with oil or fat before cooking, they’ll tend to be less salty when
nished.
For Gas Stove: Place your Himalayan Salt Block on the stove over
low ame. Aer 15 minutes increase heat to low-medium. At this
point, your salt plate will be hot enough to cook on, but you will want
to keep the ame on low-medium while cooking. If extremely hot
temperatures are desired, increase ame to medium-high for another
15 minutes.
For Ceramic Top and/or Electric Cook tops: Place a metal
spacer such as wok ring or pastry n with a removable boom on the
stove so that the Himalayan Salt Block is at least 1/2 inch above the
heang element.
For the Grill: It is recommended curing the plate before your rst
use, by heang it slowly, and then allowing it to slowly cool back to
room temperature.
* Remember, when heang a salt block under any circumstances, it is
common for the le to make ‘cracking’, ‘crackling’ or ‘popping’ noises
as it heats up. The salt will retain a hot temperature for longer than
one might expect; always be careful when handling a salt block that
has been heated.
