Ishigaki salt" born in the birthplace of salt productionIshigaki salt is additive-free & sea salt made from 100% seawater, and is actually made by going into the ocean, pumping seawater out of plastic bottles, making a charcoal fire, and slowly boiling the seawater in a stone pot.
Ishigaki Island's unique salt is made by pumping up seawater,Because we utilize seawater from coral reefs, we are able to produce a sweet salt that contains coral minerals.
Experienced local staff will guide you!
While listening to the story of Okinawan salt culture,The moment when the salt crystals gradually emerge is very moving.
The resulting salt is placed in a small bag with 18 grains of rice and tied with a twine called sanggwa, which can be taken home as a charm to ward off evil!
