PRODUCT DETAILS

Bamboo Salt: A Natural Alternative to Regular Salt

The Essence of Bamboo Salt

ALTIST presents Bamboo Salt - a unique and healthier alternative to regular salt. This product embodies the philosophy of "Enjoy delicious salt without worrying about it!" Our bamboo salt is not just a seasoning but a testament to traditional practices and modern health consciousness.

Craftsmanship and Heritage

Master Jeong Rak-hyeon, the renowned No. 1 bamboo salt master, personally oversees the production of this exquisite salt. Drawing from a 1,300-year-old secret passed down at Gaeamsa Temple in Buan, Jeollabuk-do, Master Je modernized this ancient technique, contributing to the popularization and continuous research and development of bamboo salt. This dedication ensures the highest quality and authenticity of our product.

Unique Production Process

The process of making bamboo salt is meticulous and deeply rooted in tradition. It involves:

  1. Selecting Premium Ingredients: We use high-quality sea salt and bamboo that is at least 3 years old.
  2. Ancient Baking Technique: The salt is packed into the bamboo and then baked at over 700°C. This process is repeated three times for optimal purification and mineral harmonization.
  3. Natural Components: The bamboo is complemented with firewood from 50-year-old pine trees and mixed with mineral water, creating a unique blend of natural elements.
  4. Extended Crafting Time: Each batch of bamboo salt spends 48 hours in a special crypt and is carefully monitored throughout the process.

Government Recognition and Certification

Our bamboo salt has been officially recognized by the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries, receiving designation on 2015.09.23. This certification underlines the exceptional quality and authenticity of our product, crafted under the expert guidance of Bamboo Salt Master Jeong Rak-hyeon.

Usage and Benefits

Bamboo salt can be used in various culinary applications:

  • Enhancing Cooking Flavors: It accentuates the natural taste of ingredients, elevating the flavor of dishes.
  • Bamboo Salt Water & Tea: Incorporate it into beverages for a unique twist and health benefits.

Bamboo Salt: what is it?

Bamboo salt, commonly referred to as Jukyeom, is a unique and traditional Korean salt known for its distinct flavor profile and potential health benefits. This salt is traditionally crafted by filling bamboo stalks with sea salt and then roasting them at high temperatures. This process can be repeated several times to enhance its qualities.

Unique Flavor Characteristics

Bamboo salt distinguishes itself from regular salt with its slightly sulfuric and more complex taste. The intensive high-heat treatment it undergoes is likely to add a subtle smoky flavor. This particular taste is generally more refined and less sharp than that of standard table salt, making it a desirable addition to various dishes.

Potential Health Benefits

Enriched with Minerals

Bamboo salt is believed to contain a higher concentration of essential minerals compared to regular salt. These include, but are not limited to, potassium, magnesium, and calcium. These minerals are integral to numerous bodily functions and overall well-being.

Alkalizing Effect on the Body

It is said that bamboo salt has properties that can help in balancing the pH levels of the body. This alkalizing effect can be beneficial in maintaining a healthy internal environment.

Antioxidant Properties

The unique processing method of bamboo salt may contribute to its higher levels of antioxidants. Antioxidants are crucial in combating oxidative stress in the body, which is linked to various health issues.

Benefits for Oral Health

Traditionally, bamboo salt has been used in oral hygiene practices due to its antibacterial properties. This makes it an interesting alternative for those looking to incorporate natural products into their dental care routine.

Conclusion

Bamboo salt, with its unique taste and array of potential health benefits, is not only a prized ingredient in Korean cuisine but also an intriguing element in traditional medicinal practices. Its distinct characteristics make it a noteworthy alternative to regular salt, both in culinary applications and health-oriented uses.
