Sea salt, a gift from the ocean, is celebrated for its rich mineral content. Historically, sea salt was produced through the age-old method of sun evaporation. Seawater is collected in shallow ponds and left to evaporate under the sun’s heat. This time-consuming process allows for maximum mineral retention, as gentle evaporation preserves the delicate balance of elements.
