Natural rock salt is acquired from salt mines in Pakistan. Then the big lumps are broken into small pieces and put into a large vessel in a furnace. Some herbs like Pepper, Rosemary, Rue, Cinnamon, and Harrad, etc are mixed into rock salt in certain specific ratios in a vessel of a furnace then the whole ingredients including rock salt are melted at high temperature in a furnace for a specific time. When all this mixture is converted into liquid form with the help of high temperature then this liquid is poured into many small vessels of about 30-40kgs each and let cool. It takes many hours to become cold and to convert into a solid form again. When the material of the vessels becomes solid then it is taken out of these vessels and broken into small lumps. Now the black salt is ready for use. Factories make different grades of black salt. Some people want black salt in lump form and some demand it in granulate or fine form.
It is mostly used in Asian countries for different purposes like as edible salt because it is highly digestive as well as it is used in some medicines. It is also used for animals again for digestion purposes.
Kala namak is used extensively in the South Asian cuisines of Bangladesh, Nepal, India, and Pakistan as a condiment or added to chaats, chutneys, salads, all kinds of fruits, raitas, and many other savory Indian snacks. Chaat masala, an Indian spice blend, is dependent upon black salt for its characteristic sulfurous hard-boiled egg aroma. Those who are not accustomed to black salt often describe the smell as similar to rotten eggs. Kala namak is appreciated by some vegans in dishes that mimic the taste of eggs. It is used, for example, to season tofu or avocado to mimic an egg salad or deviled eggs.
Kala namak is considered a cooling spice in Ayurveda and is used as a laxative and digestive aid. It is also believed to relieve flatulence and heartburn. It is used in Jammu to cure goiters.
