Regal Extra Coarse Kosher Salt has no
additives, and it has big crystals with large
surface areas. This size and shape allows
it to absorb more moisture than other
forms of salt, and this makes kosher salt
excellent for curing meats. That is
essentially where the name comes from.
The salt itself is not kosher, meaning it
doesn't conform to Jewish food laws, but
this salt is used to make meat kosher.
That's not the only use for Regal Extra
Coarse Kosher Salt, however. The flavor is
distinct from ordinary table salt and some
cooks prefer to use it in their cooking. Like
other coarse salts, kosher salt can be
used
in recipes that call for a salt crust. You can
even use it to salt the edge of a margarita
glass. Sold in a 16 oz. bottle.
