Natural Himalayan Salt Brick (Pack of 2)

You can sear on a Himalayan salt block, chill it for cold plates, or backlight it as a glowing panel. This pack holds two food-grade bricks, each hand-cut to roughly 8 x 4 x 2 cm and sanded flat on every face, carved from Khewra halite in Punjab, Pakistan.

Size and fit

• Two food-grade pink halite bricks, about 8 x 4 x 2 cm apiece
• Takes high heat for searing or a spell in the fridge for cold serving
• Naturally antimicrobial, so a wipe replaces washing-up liquid
• Backlights to a deep amber for a bar or feature-wall detail

To temper a brick, sit it on the lowest hob setting and step the heat up gradually every 15 minutes or so; a sudden jump in temperature is what cracks salt, so patience pays. Once it's hot, sear prawns, thin steak, fish or vegetables straight on the surface for a mineral seasoning you can't get another way. Or chill the bricks and use them cold under charcuterie, sushi and cheese. Let a used block cool fully, then scrape and wipe with a damp sponge, no soap and no soaking, and dry it right through. Faint surface cracks after heating are normal. Add it to your basket.
