Select Sea Salt and TFC Select Sea Salt
Morton Select Sea Salt is harvested from naturally occurring salt water lakes, oceans, or seas that are open to the wind and sun. This food grade sea salt is concentrated in open shallow ponds and then crystallized into pure salt through slow evaporation via solar heat and wind. The harvested salt is washed, dried, crushed, and screened to the optimum size.
