Introducing Lake Huron Sea Salt
A unique alternative to your regular table salt. This isn’t just any salt; it’s a piece of our local heritage, sourced directly from the largest underground salt mine in the world, located right here in the basin of our beloved Lake Huron, in Goderich, Ontario.
When you sprinkle Lake Huron Sea Salt on your dish, you’re not just adding flavor, you’re adding a touch of Huron County. It’s a great conversation piece for those who love our area, and a great way for visitors to take a memory of Lake Huron home with them.
But wait … Isn’t Lake Huron a Freshwater Lake?
How does it provide Sea Salt?
Our salt is sourced from the largest underground salt mine in the world, located in Goderich, Ontario. This unique process results in mineral-rich and pure sea salt that’s free from fossil contaminants. The salt deposits in Lake Huron were formed over 400 million years ago by a shallow sea that covered much of North America. These deposits are rich in minerals and nutrients, making Lake Huron Sea Salt ideal for cooking and seasoning.
Cool, eh? That’s what makes it so much fun to share.
