Himalayan Salt Block
Round / Size 20cm x 2.5 cm
A round Himalayan salt block can be used for cooking, chilling, and serving, adding a mild, mineral-rich saltiness to food.
The circular shape makes it ideal for table-side service, allowing guests to cook or chill their own portions.
✴Cooking and grilling
A round salt block can be heated on a gas stovetop, grill, or in the oven for searing and sautéing. Its shape is especially suited for cooking a main dish and serving it directly to the table.
· Searing proteins: The block imparts a subtle, salty crust to thinly sliced steaks, fish fillets, scallops, or shrimp. The round shape is perfect for individual portions.
· Cooking vegetables: Asparagus, bell peppers, or other thin-cut vegetables can be quickly seared on the hot surface for a tender-crisp result.
· Frying eggs: For an elegant presentation, fry eggs directly on the heated block. Use an onion or bell pepper ring as a mould to prevent the egg from running off the circular surface.
· Baking pizza: A salt block can be heated and used as a baking stone for individual-sized pizzas, adding a unique, savoury flavour to the crust.
✴Chilling and curing
When chilled or frozen, a round salt block becomes an impressive, mineral-rich serving platter for cold foods. It will hold its temperature for a significant amount of time, keeping appetizers fresh.
· Presenting sushi and sashimi: The chilled block keeps fish cold while seasoning it with a subtle, clean salt flavour.
· Serving appetizers: Arrange fresh fruit, cheeses, Salads and cold dips on a chilled salt block to keep them cool and add a hint of saltiness.
· Making ice cream: Use a frozen salt block as a “cold stone” surface for making instant ice cream. The salt enhances the flavours of sweet ingredients.· Curing food: Place thinly sliced raw fish, like ahi tuna or salmon, on the chilled block to begin the curing process.
✴Serving platter
Whether hot or cold, a round salt block makes a visually striking, naturally antimicrobial serving platter. For best results when serving, use a block specifically for this purpose, as cooking on it can cause discoloration and cracking over time.
· Tableside presentation: Bring a pre-heated salt block to the table in a holder to let guests cook their food, such as scallops or shrimp, right at their seats.·
Charcuterie board: A round salt block makes a beautiful and functional serving surface for cured meats, cheese, and crackers. Moist cheeses will absorb more of the salt flavor than drier foods.
Wonderful addition to your culinary skills and kitchen
