These are not the only blends in this category that
use no salt; but they are the only ones created solely
to be used to replace salt in a recipe.

These recipes will need to be ground finely, so that
the mix can be shaken through either small or wide-holed
shakers/jars. Use a coffee grinder or mortar and pestle
if your arms need a workout.

Please Note! If you are on a No Salt Diet, as opposed to a Low Salt Diet, a few of these
recipes use sea vegetables that contain sodium chloride.
The amount of sodium chloride in the total recipe is
much less than regular table or sea salt, and it also
holds many valuable trace minerals the body needs.
