Introduction 
Just like how I want to provide you with a quick and easy mortgage solution, the Saltbox is my way of thanking you for trusting me with your mortgage needs. After all, having a Saltbox in your kitchen allows you to customize meals and access just the right pinch of salt super quick and easy! Albeit, if you’re not a big salt person, don’t fret, put this little jar in your washroom and enjoy the health benefits in the bath. I’d love for you to share your creations on social, tag my instagram page so I know what’s up 😉
Hawaiian-Style Black Lava Salt
Made with activated charcoal and 100% pure sea salt from the Pacific Ocean, the activated charcoal not only has deep hues but is also a natural detoxifier with a lower sodium count and antioxidant properties. The rich black colour and crunchy grains add a dramatic finish to any meal and is guaranteed to be a natural conversation starter at your next dinner party. Hawaiian-Style Black Lava Salt pairs well with seafood, meat and fruits! The black lava salt doesn’t change the taste of foods but definitely brings a new depth and more flavour to your meals without overpowering the dish.
Looking for a couple ideas to add a little smokey, yet slightly bitter taste to a dish:
Sprinkle a little black salt over root veggies or some Brussel Sprouts
Sprinkle a little on crisp roasted potatoes
Air frying chicken wings? Toss a pinch on top!
Sprinkle a little on your next steak or a meaty fish like Tuna or Halibut
Avocado Toast fan? Finish it off with a sprinkle of black lava salt for a delicious smokey crunch!
Bon Appétit!

Pink Himalayan Salt
This beautiful rose coloured Himalayan Pink Salt is mined from ancient pink salt deposits below the Himalayan mountains. Himalayan Pink Salt is an unrefined, raw salt, containing no additives or chemicals. It remains in the same pure form today as when it was formed over two hundred and fifty million years ago.
Looking for a couple ideas to add a little pink salt to your next dish?
Simply put, pink salt is less refined than table salt and can be used in all the same ways. Use it as you would in baking, cooking, and to finish off a meal. Being less refined means it’s better for you, giving you nutrients like zinc, iron and calcium.
Sprinkle on top of green beans coated in butter, nothing like a delicious vegetable dish!
Sprinkle in your soups to give them a little extra zing
Use pink salt the next time you bake cookies or a cake
You can even sprinkle a little on your popcorn

Add 1 cup of pink salt to your bath and soak. Himalayan Pink Salt has many benefits in the bath such as its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antiseptic properties, making it a great cleanser for your skin.
