Guide to Salt Distributors and Specialty Salt

Discover gourmet salts for your restaurant or other food business


Salt has a reputation for being an unhealthy part of cooking and eating, but salt in and of itself isn't "bad." In fact, salt is an essential nutrient that is only 40% sodium. All salts originally come from the ocean, but some salt mines are now on dry land. Still, you'll find many salt products labeled "sea salt," meaning they come directly from current oceans. Generally, coarse salts are used in cooking, while finer salts are used for sprinkling on cooked food. Fine salts are also usually used in baking because they dissolve more evenly.

There's a huge variety of salts to choose from, and a large number of sea salt distributors. Choosing the right salt and salt distributor is an important part of making your food business exceptional. The right salt will delight your customers and make them come back for more. When choosing salts for your restaurant or other food business, follow these steps:

1. Determine which types of salt best suit your business' food.

2. Research spiced, specialty and sea salt distributors.

3. Buy specialty, spiced and sea salt wholesale.

Action Steps

The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Purchase high quality sea salt So-called sea salt is created by evaporating sea water. This sort of salt usually has trace minerals, including magnesium, iodine and potassium. These minerals give sea salt a lighter, more fresh flavor than standard table salt.

I recommend:  Buy sea salts wholesale from SaltWorks, which carries grey, Bolivian rose, Hawaiian, Cyprus and many other varieties. The Truffle Market is one of several fine sea salt distributors offering Hawaiian, French, New Zealand and other types of organic and non-organic salts. Click on "Wholesale Site" at the bottom of the page to create an account and purchase their products in bulk.

Find seasoned varieties through a salt distributor Gourmet sea salt manufacturing allows you and your employees to add high flavor to your business' dishes. Seasoned salts vary widely according to the imagination and genius of their creator, but often-found flavors include garlic and herbed salts.

I recommend:  Maine Sea Salt Company sells bulk salt wholesale, including specialized, seasoned salts like garlic, pepper, herbed, lemon and apple-smoked sea salt. The Spice House offers celery, garlic, hickory smoke and many other types of salts.

Treat your customers to Himalayan salt Himalayan salt is growing in popularity. As its name suggests, it comes from the foothills of the Himalayas and was originally a marine fossil. Himalayan salt gets its pink color from its natural iron. It is used either raw or for cooking and is sure to please your customers.

I recommend:  Igourment.com sells pink Himalayan salt online in small containers. Himalayan Salt Cart also carries gourmet Himalayan salt.
