Black Salt (Kala Namak)

Black Salt, or Kala Namak, is a naturally occurring volcanic rock salt famous for its unique, egg-like sulfur aroma. Commonly used in chaats, raitas, chutneys, and digestive drinks like jaljeera, it enhances the tangy and savory notes of food. Apart from its culinary uses, it is valued in Ayurveda for aiding digestion, reducing bloating, and improving appetite. Its natural mineral content makes it a healthier alternative to regular table salt in many preparations.
