Gujarat is the salt bowl of India, contributing a whopping 76% of the country's total salt production. This coastal state boasts ideal conditions for salt production - long coastline, abundant sunshine, and flat terrain.
Gujarat's salt production is not just limited to table salt. The state also produces a significant amount of industrial salt, which is used in various industries like chemicals, textiles, and paper production.
• Edible Salt: This is the most common type of salt used for cooking and consumption. It is further processed into various categories:
• Refined Salt: This is the table salt we typically use at home. It is purified and has a fine texture.
• Iodized Salt: This type of salt has iodine added to it, which is essential for thyroid function. Iodine deficiency is a public health concern in India, and iodized salt helps to prevent it.
• Sea Salt: This salt is obtained from seawater through evaporation. It is minimally processed and retains some minerals from the seawater, giving it a slightly different flavor compared to refined salt.
