About kala namak
Kala namak (black salt) is a kiln-fired Himalayan rock salt with a distinctive savoury, egg-like aroma from its natural sulphur compounds.
How to use kala namak
A pinch transforms tofu scramble, vegan omelettes and chickpea 'egg' dishes, and it's essential in Indian chaat masala, raitas and fruit salads.
Frequently asked questions about kala namak
Why does kala namak smell like eggs?
Its natural sulphur compounds give the eggy aroma, which is why it's a favourite for vegan egg-style dishes.
Is kala namak the same as table salt?
No — it has a milder, more savoury taste and a unique aroma, so use it for flavour rather than as a straight swap.
How should I store kala namak?
Keep it dry and sealed; like all salt it lasts well but can clump if exposed to moisture.
