Description
Mount Zero Pink Lake Salt is a natural gourmet salt product that varies in pigment from wet to dry. The local provenance of the salt, along with the hand harvesting, natural sun drying and the salt’s beautiful flavour and colour are a mirror of Mount Zero’s core principles of regionalism, sustainability and quality.
Our gourmet salt is a natural pink salt sourced just 50km up the road from the original Mount Zero olive grove. The lake is fed by natural salt aquifers and each summer dries out to reveal a bed of salmon-coloured pink salt. Mount Zero and the lake’s traditional owners, the Barengi Gadjin Land Council have been working together to hand-harvest a small amount of salt from the lake each year.
Through analysis of the salt, we know that it is a concentrated store of natural mineral nutrients – rich in calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, sulphur, iron, manganese, zinc and copper as well as being rich in beta carotene. This complexity of minerals provides a complex, well-rounded flavour – dissimilar to many sharp-tasting refined salts.
