New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/07/2016 -- Gourmet salts are high-quality, unrefined salts utilized for enhancing the taste and/or texture of food. They are naturally harvested and left untreated in their natural forms and thus have no additives and low sodium content. Gourmet salts have a higher mineral content and better solubility and are used with other types of spices, flavors, and herbs for enhancing the color and flavor of food. These salts are also utilized for preserving canned food items for storing food products for longer periods of time.
