Abstract

This invention describes a formula for flavored sea salt made from a trio of spices (garlic, coriander root, and pepper) with a reduced sodium content. The ingredients include sea salt, potassium chloride, garlic, coriander root, and pepper. The preparation process involves mixing the sea salt with potassium chloride and adding garlic, coriander root, and pepper to the mixture. The objective is to produce a flavored sea salt with a lower sodium content than standard table salt, while maintaining a taste similar to standard table salt. This product offers lower sodium than regular table salt and a suitable aroma and flavor for use in seasoning and processing Thai and Eastern cuisine. It adds value to sea salt by incorporating a Thai flavor, expanding its applications and enhancing product hygiene through processing. The production process for flavored sea salt is simple, convenient, requires minimal labor, can be done at room temperature, uses low heat energy, resulting in low production costs and environmental sustainability.

The process for preparing a blend of flavored sea salt from reduced-sodium trisodium chloride powder, according to any one of Patents 1-6, consists of the following steps: a. Preparation of sea salt by drying the first portion of sea salt in a hot air oven at a temperature of 50 degrees Celsius and grinding it into a powder. The powder is then sieved through a sieve with a particle size less than 210 microns. b. Mixing the sea salt from step a with potassium chloride until homogeneous, resulting in the sea salt mixture. c. Preparation of garlic by drying the garlic in a hot air oven at a temperature of 55 degrees Celsius and grinding it into a powder. The powder is then sieved through a sieve with a particle size less than 150 microns. d. Preparation of coriander root by drying the coriander root in a hot air oven at a temperature of 55 degrees Celsius and grinding it into a powder. The powder is then sieved through a sieve with a particle size less than 150 microns. e. Preparation of pepper.
