What is the texture of this salt like? Would it be fine like table salt or more coarse like kosher salt. I would prefer coarse for cooking...

Crystals are bigger than table salt, with little earth red dots peppered throughout. Not that big of crystals though.

I would say that both the sodium chloride (salt) and the silica (sand) in the bag that I bought are fine, that is, more the size of table salt. Even though it is fine, the insoluble silica particles are very unpleasant to experience between my teeth when I ate the food I cooked with it.

It's on the finer side, although, in my opinion, not as fine as the regular white salt, such as Morton. However, Redmond has coarse salt as well: One 16-Ounce Real Salt Sea Salt Coarse - Grinder

yE\\\ Yes, if you order the fine it is just like table salt. You can also order coarse. I love this salt, it tastes much better than table salt .

It is fine like table salt. It is full of minerals and I use it to cook as well.

It's very close to commercial table salt in coarseness. Tastes much better ;-)

Yes, thank you for asking. We do use this on the table & we use it in our cooking as well. It tastes so much better than other salt substitutes we have tried. Definitely worth the purchase, we think.

I just tried it and it tastes great! I melted about 2 tbs butter in the microwave to give the salt something to stick to. Works like a charm!

Like others have said, it is hard to describe. Some will like it others will not. It is salt SUBSTITUTE after all and not salt so it will not taste exactly like salt. Personally I like it and find it a nice pleasant seasoning. Being on dialysis I must limit sodium and potassium so it works well for me with the advantage of liking the taste. I especially like it on my eggs in the morning.

Sorry I can't help you. I wasn't pleased with the taste. I think there's nothing better than Kosher salt because of the way it's cut - more edges means more flavor.

Too damn long. The amount of salt in it will preserve it for a long time. I liked the flavor but it is too salty for me.

I wouldn't just use the salt to flavor pasta. I use a combination of the salt but more of the truffle butter. And you need to play around with the amount. I used the combo for a gratin potatoes this Christmas and it was a hit

I liked this salt at first but don't use it any more. It has a bit of a strong, not the right word, maybe a slight chemical taste ? Not sure what the taste is but I have changed to sea salt, it tastes better. Hope that helps a little.........

as long as the salt is dry. I know some brands of celtic sea salt has the texture of wet sand. I use Himalayan sea salt in mine. Works great. if your salt is sticky in nature I wouldn't recommend this product. I think the salt would gum it up.

Yes, it is food grade salt. I have been using it for nothing but my food and I'm doing just fine. :-)

Hello,The holes are Very Large..Enough for Kosher Salt and Course Pepper could be a stretch, although I will tell you regular salt and pepper will pour out without shaking. I just asked my wife about your question and she also said she isn't sure about the Kosher Salt, but Course Pepper should be no problem.Sorry but we just aren't sure....Dave

It is unprocessed and is a very fine salt, it takes very little to do you, so go easy when salting things I am very pleased with it.

it is course. Doesn't matter when you put it in stuff that you are cooking. We used a mortar and pestle to grind it to put on food. Sort of a nice touch to hand grind your own salt.

I've only spread it on bread or crackers. I still find the product to be too salty. I've been adding it to water to make a soup base.

Last year I bought some tahani made from black sesame seeds. It's got significantly more flavor, which I kind of like. I don't think it has any added salt. I got it from Dipasa. They have both the regular and the black tahini in both jars and 40# pails. I like it!

in what sense do you mean kosher? kosher as in ok for jewish people? i thought kosher salt just meant it was a certain type/size.

Yes. The super fine texture is not grainy like regular table salt, therefore it has great adhesive qualities.
