Well, for starters, it’s not Himalayan. I don’t know where this ancient story took a wrong turn, but in fact, this blush-pink beauty comes from the northern mountains of Pakistan, the result of a prehistoric land-locked sea that had evaporated and turned to salt. Over a few hundred million years or so, movement of the continental plates caused thes...
The natural non-stick surface is perfect for searing meat.The crystalline content ensures perfect heat distribution throughout the entire cooking surfaceThe seasoning is built-in! Enhanced complexity and subtle salting of food is all done automatically by the block itself.Chills brilliantly too. Serving sushi on a hot day? Serve it on a chilled salt block and your guests won’t go home with food poisoning!The beauty of this natural chunk of our planet is that it comes in any shape and size you want! Used for bowls, lamps and even shot glasses too (so cool!), it can be chosen to work with the size of your grill and your choice of grilling items. I have two favorites myself…a sizeable 8” × 12” × 2” which can grill several items at once and guarantees ...
What can’t you cook on one?! Steaks, scallops, fish, shrimp, pork, chicken, vegetables, and fruit. All delicious, delicately, naturally and uniquely seasoned, and you will go weak at the knees when you experience the crunchy seared golden bite that salt block grillinglends to meat. That said, I must add that smaller cuts that cook quickly are best....
When I first tried grilling using a salt block, I was kind of suspicious and braced myself for, well, a lot of saltiness. But here’s the thing, the surface of the block has extremely low porosity and is super-dense (as anything would be that’s been crushed by mountains and seas for a few millennia). This means that the surface area of any food you ...
If ever there was a one-two punch in the sanitation line, it is the combination of high heat and extreme salinity. Ain’t nothin’ going to grow in those conditions…bacteria, pathogens, microbes, nada. Bitterman says that salt blocks are “the most sanitary thing you can cook on.”
We all like to think our grilling skills are enough to impress our guests, but a salt block takes it up a notch! With its gorgeous pink and red hues, it will always wow when food is brought in sizzling and seared. And because salt is excellent at retaining extreme temperatures, the food will stay hot for a good while at the table, no warming drawer...
Boy, what can’tthese superheroes do?! When a hot day challenges your ability to keep cold foods cold (think sushi or shrimp…things you absolutely do NOT want to eat room temperature on a hot day…), the salt block is your friend. Toss it in the freezer for a few hours, and it will stay cold and keep food good and chilled for hours. And to think I us...
OK, this is important, because you can wreck a beautiful new salt block by cleaning it the wrong way. For starters, don’t hurry. It took a while to heat up, and it will take a while to cool down. Just leave it be until it’s totally cool before cleaning. Rule #1: No soap or detergent of any kind. Bitterman goes as far as to say don’t use warm water ...
Sadly, not forever. But with proper care and maintenance and especially smart heating as described here, you can expect a quality one to last a few years. How often you use the block affects its lifespan too, of course. Salt blocks will naturally wear down little by little with use, becoming thinner and possibly developing more fissures as they age...
