Which is better, sea salt or mineral salt?

It is said that the lowest cost of sea salt is a fake expert. The domestic sea salt production is the lowest and the well salt production is the highest. Most sea salt is made by spreading or drying in the sun according to ancient methods. Well salt is added with anti-caking agent, which has a certain chemical composition, so lake salt is not mentioned. From the taste: everyone is sodium chloride, so I won't tell the difference. Taste Shanghai salt has the freshest taste and contains a lot of amino acids, which can be understood by referring to seafood, followed by lake salt and well salt, with nothing but sodium chloride.

From the point of view of nutrition, the main component of salt is sodium. As long as sodium chloride is pure enough, there is no difference in nutritional value. In addition to iodine, sea salt comes from seawater, and also contains some amino acids and trace elements. As for the ingredients promoted by other businesses, they can basically be ignored and have little impact on the human body.

As far as raw materials are concerned, it is nonsense to say that seawater is polluted and lakes and wells are clean. Land garbage is the most polluted in human life, and people who wash salt and ore from wells are drunk. Read more books. Lake water, well water and seawater are not all pure and pollution-free, but there is no need to worry too much. The salt processed by the current salt processing technology is basically pollution-free. Just think about the source of tap water.

From the processing technology: sea salt has undergone direct evaporation and manual screening, and some lake salt and well salt have undergone some chemical treatment.

As far as additives are concerned, in order to prevent salt from caking, lake salt and well salt add more anti-caking agents, usually potassium ferrocyanide. The salt added with anti-caking agent will reduce the salty taste and umami taste, but generally speaking, the salt anti-caking agent will not do much harm to human body, and potassium cyanide will be diluted at a high temperature above 340℃, so it is not unreasonable to put salt in cooking. Because the processing technology is complicated, sea salt is basically not added.

From the price point of view: sea salt and lake salt are relatively expensive because of their scarce production, and well salt is the cheapest.

In terms of quality, the quality of sea salt is the highest, followed by lake salt, and finally well salt.
