SEA SALT (Unrefined/Natural)
Premium natural sea salt harvested from pristine ocean waters through solar evaporation. This minimally processed salt retains trace minerals that give it a subtle, complex flavor profile—perfect for bringing out the rich, earthy tastes of Nigerian dry fish, stock fish, and traditional soups like egusi and ogbono. The coarser crystals provide excellent texture for both cooking and finishing.
