If you are still wondering what Kala Namak is, please have a look at this information extracted from Stylecraze.com:
- Indian black salt, extensively referred to as kala namak, is a variety of Indian volcanic stone salt. It’s popular in India, Pakistan, and nations all across the world because of its twisted taste and easy availability. This special variety of salt has its origin in the Himalayan ranges and is used in Indian dishes for cooking and garnishing. Due to the presence of iron and other minerals, the salt is pinkish-grey in colour. It contains a unique sulfurous component that is frequently compared to boiled egg yolks and is super healthy.
- Other than providing a distinct flavour to dishes, black salt is popular for its health benefits as well as its capacity to store food. It is often recommended for individuals with high blood pressure and for those on low-salt diets. The reason behind this is that it is low in sodium and doesnโt enhance the sodium level in your blood. It also relieves heartburn and intestinal gas. In short, it boosts your overall digestive system.
