MARKY'S Hawaiian Bamboo Sea Salt Medium Coarse - 1 lb / 452 g

Great salt with a sophisticated flavor. I put it on melon, apple slices, radishes, and other fruits and veggies.

Very nice

I was hesitant to buy this given other reviews about the lack of taste. And if you want a strong seasoning, keep in mind this is salt.Very, very good salt. Not powdery. The taste is indeed subtle but certainly there, and adds a richness and fresh taste to food that now has us using this salt for everything instead of normal table salt. Well worth giving it a try for ourselves and we will definitely be ordering again in the future once this bag runs out.-This is unground salt that we put in a shaker to grind down more finely for use.

I love the clean salty taste.

Nice aroma. Works well in my salt grinder.

I like this Hawaiian Coarse Sea Salt with Bamboo Leaf Extract. It came in a sealed pouch that's resealable. See my pic. It has a definite scent that's hard to describe. It's a little like green tea, but I can only describe it as a slightly sweet herbal tea of some sort. ( I assume it would be like a bamboo leaf tea, since bamboo is what this has added to it.) Anyway, the scent is a bit overwhelming in the pouch, but not once it's on our plate. I think that, in order to be able to taste the unique flavor of this salt, this is best sprinkled atop finished dishes. This is a nice sea salt and I like that it has the extra nutrients from the bamboo leaf.

Though you would not want a spoonful of this in your coffee, it has the look of coarse brown sugar in size, shape, although the colour is off.On opening the bag, and taking a giant sniff, i can definitely detect a green grassy note, very tempting smell actually. But on tasting it (raw from the bag) all i taste is salty. I’m no aficionado, but i imagine that on adding a quantity to cooked dishes, any notes may be more apparent. I agree with one reviewer who said it almost has a smoky flavour.I do find the smell of it very tempting, and am looking forward to seeing what it does for my curries, and soups. I do enjoy having a variety of salts and peppers, its an easy way to amp up the flavour of most food. I was told by a chef that a common mistake made by home cooks is that we tend to underseason food, and of course the 1st place to start is salt and pepper. It was a very good tip, and helped my home cooked dishes enormously. It’s way more fun when you have different salts ad peppers to experiment with though.This isn’t one I’d use as a sprinkle on food after it’s served, i don’t think I’d like the big crunchy crystals, and would find them offputting. I do thin though, that used in cooking, they will definitely add a certain flavour not found in any of my other salts.I’m putting this in Butter Chicken tonight. Yum

When I opened this and smelled the inside of the bag I thought I was going to be in for one rough ride. IT seriously smells terrible but done let that dissuade you the salt is actually very good. It has a slightly smokey taste to it. We had it on potatoes and it added that smokey taste. I can see this as a niche salt for subtle flavors just do not smell the inside of the bag.
