■ What is Kusamba Salt?

Kusamba is a small village located in the eastern part of Bali. The salt made here is a natural salt that receives the blessings of the sea, sun, and wind just as they are.
Because it is carefully made by hand without adding any additives, it is rich in minerals and characterized by a mellow taste.

■ History

Kusamba salt production is a traditional method that has continued for hundreds of years. It is a very time-consuming method of spreading seawater on sand, drying it in the sun, and then collecting it to crystallize.
Mass production is not possible, but in return, the thoughts of nature and people are put into every single grain.
When I see this salt-making scene on my travels, I feel a beauty that makes my heart quiet down.

Licking the salt and tasting its deliciousness.
The goodness of sea salt.
Everything is a blessing of nature to begin with.
How grateful I am♡

■ How to purchase

It is becoming available at direct sales outlets in Kusamba village, local markets in Bali, and recently at imported food stores and online shops in Japan. Many people buy it as a souvenir of their travels, but
even if you incorporate a small amount into your daily dining table,
you will feel that your heart and body are happy as it adds depth to your cooking.

It's absolutely exquisite when sprinkled on warm vegetables😋
Salt really brings out the perfect balance, doesn't it?

■ Find the salt that suits you

Salt is an essential mineral source for the body. However, its flavor and effects vary depending on the type.
・French Guérande salt is mellow and goes well with bread and salads
・Akita's Oga salt has a rich flavor and is perfect for Japanese food
・Bali's Kusamba salt has a clean aftertaste and is ideal for simple dishes

By being conscious of not "which salt is good" but "which salt suits my body and mind,"
meals become an even richer form of self-care.

■ Summary

Kusamba salt is not just a seasoning, but an existence that reminds us of a "way of life in harmony with nature".
Choosing natural salt for your daily table may seem like a small thing, but it is an important habit that connects you to nature.
Healing the fatigue of travel might just be these small "connections with nature" in our daily lives.
