Mayan Sea Salt

Mayan Sea Salt - The ancient treasure of Guatemala's coastal waters! This pure, unaltered salt carries a clean appearance and flavor that connects you directly to the sophisticated Mayan way of life. Harvested off the Guatemalan coast using methods that echo ancient traditions.

The ancient Maya were master salt entrepreneurs, with archaeological evidence showing they produced tons of sea salt daily that were transported by canoe and on human backs to interior cities. This salt was so valuable it became a cornerstone of Maya trade routes, with specialized coastal production sites like Salinas de los Nueve Cerros in Guatemala producing an estimated 2,000 tons annually.

Use this mineral-rich salt as a finishing touch on fish, eggs, and pastas, or sprinkle on veggies and meats before grilling or roasting. Try it in place of standard salt to improve the flavor of many dishes - you'll taste the difference that pure, unprocessed salt makes.
