Things You'll Need:
- Himalayan sea salt, ground or in slab, plate or brick form
- Meats and vegetables
- Grill
- Oven
- Cookie sheet
- Oven mitts
-
Step 1
Use ground Himalayan sea salt alone to season meats and vegetables during cooking.
-
Step 2
Add the ground salt to any barbecue meat rub. Himalayan sea salt has a more intense salt flavor, but it's never bitter since it doesn't have the chemicals used in ordinary table salt.
-
Step 3
Lay a Himalayan sea-salt slab or plate on your grill. (Slat slabs and plates can be as small as 4 inches by 4 inches, or as large as 8 inches by 12 inches. They are usually 1 1/2 inches thick. Plates are round, usually around 12 inches in diameter, while bricks can be any size.) Heat it up and use the slab to sear and grill shrimp, scallops or other seafood. The salt in the slab will flavor the food as it sears and grills.

Step 4
Heat a Himalayan sea salt slab on a metal cookie sheet under your oven's broiler for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven, add a tablespoon of butter to the surface and sauté vegetables and thin meat slices at the table for a unique presentation. You need no other heating method to cook the food; the slab will retain enough heat. Wear heavy oven mitts when touching a hot sea salt slab.

Step 5
Heat a sea salt slab in the oven at 350 degrees for one hour. Use a pizza peel to place pizza or flat breads on the slab to cook. It will give them an incredible crust.
