Sea salt is salt produced
from the evaporation
of seawater. It is
used in cooking and cosmetics.
It is also called bay
salt[1] or solar
salt.[2] Like mineral salt, production of
sea salt has been dated to prehistoric
times.
Generally more expensive than the more popular refined salt (table
salt), some cooks believe it tastes better than salt
from mines.
However, there is little or no health benefit to using sea salt
over table salt, as both are primarilysodium
chloride.
