## Description

desertcart.com : The Spice Lab Kala Namak Indian Himalayan Black Salt, 4 oz French Jar | Vegan Kala Namak Salt - Natural Indian Black Salt, Gluten Free - Vegan Tofu Scramble Seasoning, Natural Egg Taste : Grocery & Gourmet Food

Review: just like the scent of the yolk in a hard boiled egg, perfect for tofu "egg scramble" - This is my first foray in using black salt to provide that "egg" flavor and aroma. You know that flavor is basically sulfur, right? Think of a hard boiled egg. Smell the yolk. That smell? That is what this has. And because of that, your tofu eggs will take on a more real egg vibe. Albeit, salty. That's it. Use this when you want to have that egg-esque flavor. Not limited to use for flavoring tofu, but other applications where an added layer of flavor and nuance is desired. I like it. ------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm not vegan or vegetarian, but that does not mean I have to eat meat or animal products at every meal, every day. A lot of us are like that. We eat everything, and just enjoy food, and sometimes prefer vegetables and other plant matter as the focus rather than the side (true plant based meaning). Having various seasonings, techniques, and other ingredients on hand make it easier to do so. Keep things interesting, and sometimes cheap (sometimes not, haha). I like using tofu as it is easy on my stomach. I like making a quick "egg scramble" without using eggs as it is very quick, no fuss, and I can eat a lot more without as many calories (45 cals per serving vs 70). I usually use a whole block which is 180 calories (would be 280 or so in egg equivalent). Also, prices vary and I didnt want to waste my money on eggs for a basic scramble. I also use the shelf stable silken tofu which makes it a great pantry stable as I can tuck it away in my cupboard and not worry about using it up right away like I do with eggs. Nice emergency or prepper food. I take a block of silken tofu, drain, dry, and then toss in pan with some olive oil. I randomly crumble it up. It totally takes on scrambled egg appearance. I like to add generous amount of turmeric, black pepper, and some of this black salt. I may add in other spices depending on what I am in the mood for. I often will lightly cook some green pepper, onions, or whatever other vegetables I have. Sometimes I just eat it all in a bowl with some nooch, sometimes I roll it into a burrito wrap. YUM. While I am not at all new to eating like this, I do think it would be a good option for those who are new to trying reduced animal diet. Or could even do half and half. Same idea for "egg salad", etc. I have yet to use it in other dishes. I dont have much experience with working with sulfur flavor. Overall I think it is good. I dont have any other brand to compare it to since this is the first time I tried it. Just keep in mind that it is salty.
Review: Excellent Eggy Flavor - Only a tiny amount of this black salt is needed to provide an egg-like flavor for plant based dishes such as scrambles & omelets made from chickpea flour, split mung beans, tofu and other plant derived bases. Even sprinkling on shredded potato veggie skillets and stir fries adds an eggy flavor. Spice Lab products have always served our family well and this high quality black salt (kala namak) is no exception. Because so little is needed to impart an egg flavor I expect the 4 oz. bottle I purchased will last a very long time, possibly beyond its 2027 expiration date. Thank you, Spice Lab! Update in February 2024: My family and I still love this brand of kala namak black salt the best, having sampled other brands used by friends. Our friends have now switched to using the Spice Lab brand after trying Spice Lab, too! This is high quality kala namak and we use it so often in our household that when I order I buy the biggest bag I can find on desertcart and refill my 4 oz. bottles from there. Color of the salt granules (which look like ground pepper) may vary a little from bag to bag, but the flavor has remained consistent. In addition to the dishes I mentioned in my original review, we now add a tiny sprinkle to vegan potato salad to simulate egg salad for sandwiches, and with a bit of vegan mayo and mustard on top of plain steamed potatoes to simulate deviled eggs. With a spoon or melon baller you can even scoop a bit of potato from the center of half of a cooked potato to mix with vegan mayo and mustard, add the smooth mixture back to the potato half and top with this salt to make it look like deviled eggs, as well. And even plain toast can be sprinkled with kala namak and served with a bit of maple syrup to simulate French toast! The key to the best results is to sprinkle a tiny amount of this salt on top of the food, not to mix it in or cook with it. Even the Spice Lab label will tell you that, so pay attention to this advice in order to get the best results. Start with a light dose and increase only if needed. After all, you can’t easily removed the salt if you add too much; you can always add more to suit individual taste. Subtle is usually more pleasing than strong. 🙂

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I read that this is a good substitute for onion.  Opinions?**
A: I think you're thinking of hing (asafoetida). It's commonly used in Indian dishes to substitute for onions & garlic for people who don't eat them because of their Jain religion.

**Q: Is this all natural or synthetic salt**
A: The label says "Natural and Kosher".  I will tell you that this salt has an unbelievably wonderful taste and smell.  I use it very frequently on raw vegetables I eat.  I highly recommend it, but my wife does not care for it.  She says it is too sulfurous.  Just a matter of taste.

**Q: has anyone tried this as a bath salt?  Supposedly this is the same component in hot springs that people soak in for pain relief?**
A: YES... it is like a sulfur hot spring.. it will smell but makes a really natural mineral bath..brett

**Q: It says it’s found in the Himalayan’s but does it come from there?**
A: all real Himalayan salt is form Pakistan, not india, it is mined in the foothills
