Why Icelandic Sea Salt Is So Expensive | So Expensive

- čas přidán 7. 08. 2020
- Hand-harvested Icelandic sea salt could cost you more than 30 times the price of table salt. Housed in one of the most remote and coldest locations in the country, Saltverk salt factory produces 10 metric tons of salt each year. But there’s one other thing that’s unique about the way it’s processed: Everything is powered entirely by geothermal energy. Unlike processed rock salt, the sea minerals remain in the crystals - but these are only a tiny percentage of the final product. The final result is very minimally processed, flaky sea salt from clear Icelandic waters.

Why Icelandic Sea Salt Is So Expensive | So Expensive
It's hard cuz they need to differentiate between salt and snow
Snow melts
Lol they over there look at them both like, ahhhhhhhhh....this one
@@AVG33K13 Ok mister joke fister
Blakerz 3 Gaming Salt also melts
E joke fister lol
So when you are buy this salt, you're not really buying the salt, you're buying the process.
They don't have enough sunlight to make salt
So at the end of the day, it's still sea salt regardless?
@@ArcticSeraph of course
Salt taste like salt. The only reason people buy this is probably for super fancy restaurants to jack up their food price.
@Dennis Helgi what about walrus shit and polarbear scat
"This sea salt can cost 30 times as more expensive than table salt"
*looks at the price of table salt in my local Walmart* so $30
Good math 👍🏼
@@ejerl9107 what, are you a preschooler? That's simple math
@@pokochoco5931 you have a really good humor
In my country Sea Salts cost around $3 for 1 kg.
@@pokochoco5931 no shit
That’s so sad because I just saw basically the exact same video about salt being made in the same way in Mexico, but it was the opposite story instead of it being so expensive it was the story of how there was only 63 farmers left using a method over 2000 years old, but somehow an entire liter of their salt only sold for $.50 in The USA
Edit: the man also did everything without a single other worker, barefoot by himself in the hot sun. No machines or anything just one man by himself selling salt for dirt cheap, to keep his ancestors tradition alive
Just goes to show how marketing drives the cost of any piece of shit.
Well u know, its somethin labelled made by European Countries😅
The European colonization results nowadays given value to products made by the europe and devalues products and process made by the antique colonies, even if they are exactly the same thing. Its a way to maintain the "hierarchy".
Yes, i remember watching that video! I remember him saying he was 40, but he looked goddamn 20
yea i remember i just watched that too, to be fair these are different salts but that other salt should be worth so much more than he’s getting paid for it

Well I don't know. I just got recommended this video after watching the "The Japanese Technique for Harvesting Sea Salt by Hand" video. It looks 100x more "by hand" in Japan. All I see in this video are machines in every stage of the process.
Hawaii is 100% by hand no machinery at all. It is done how our ancestors did it. Not even boiling down. It's all from the sun. We call it pa'akai and it cannot be sold because the US government regulates everything!! The excuse they use is because it is not sterilized, like milk being pasteurized. Through sterilization it is no longer salt or milk it is a completely different product once it goes through high heat. That's how they are able to weed out native sustainability.

Pretty sure you just listed the reasons
Exactly what I thought lol
correction there 🙋 it is almost all by hand. dont you see the modern machine? the salt harvester in my country can legit say by hand. non factory salt harvester is using basic tools for harvesting salt. the vid is showing a factory that produced salt.
yeah it is factory, you want to acknowledge it or not if they have machine it is a factory. by using hand it means no modern machine just using traditional way and tools.
I said the same thing 😂😂
I have seen in a video that in Japan, they produce salt by the traditional method and they #actually made without machines by talented workers.# And they are available in most of the continent stores in Japan and they are not as expensive as these salts which are marketed for their higher price.

Why Icelandic sea salt is so expensive?
Because it is cold
I just bought some of this salt from Amazon and it’s amazing.
I ordered some Birch smoked Salt from Saltverk. I never had any salt that was comparable with this product.
come to vietnam, get vietnamese salt, we do it by hand, dry it by the special troppical sun, and its dirty cheap.
I'd prefer Vietnamese Salt over the stupid Icelandic salt any day any time. Love from Pakistan
So you guys have your own "special tropical sun" over there... hmm... does it grow on mango trees or something?
@@melanphilia nope, the sun grows on special tropical coffee tree
As a Vietnamese i still use table salt. Like salt is salt i dont really care about the flavour or whatever its still going to he be used as salt.
I just like any old salt, my two favourites are bath salts and the other white powder salt that may be illegal
The price is high because it’s eco-friendly, handmade, and in a remote location (shipping prices). There’s nothing super special about the quality of the salt itself.
Edit 4: Deleted other edits just because. I also wanted to warn you all that the replies are a battleground of gatekeepers trying to invalidate this opinion because it isn’t a “review” of the salt (meaning that I haven’t tasted it, although I never claimed to or said anything regarding its specific taste). It’s an idiotic situation, so I thought I’d let you know so that you could save some time.
Is it eco-friendly when it's packaged in plastic bags and has to be shipped half over the world? Also sea salt is usually produced in places where the sun allows natural evaporation anyways...
Geo thermal power free, sea water free only high labour cost in the name of pure Iceland it's all about being snobs
Arturo Margonar Yes, but in comparison to literally every other product that packaged and shipped in the same manner, I’d say it’s relatively eco-friendly.
Arturo Margonar it is not shipped to far for some of us
Can you at least give your review then, or is your opinion based on nothing?

I bought a 90 gram jar of this salt while visiting Iceland last year. It was a bit expensive to my European wallet but honestly did not seem expensive at all compared to Icelandic prices for any other products, Iceland is just expensive to exist in, period. It was super interesting to see the actual process behind my salt. Now I’ll feel even more nice using it while cooking :)
Does it taste any different though?
@@dmd8552 well, I'm far from a gourmet so I can't taste the difference between ANY salts (or spices, or peppers), it's all just the same effect to me. But, as I'm getting older and living in an ill-air-quality area, I certainly appreciate the fact that I'm eating a more "naturally produced" product. Even if my taste buds don't feel the difference, my body most likely will in a few years.
I'm an enthusiastic home cook and ingredients are extremely important to me. I always reach for the box of Morton's iodized salt. No one has ever complained.
Salt is salt and, honestly, I don't use that much of it. I season mostly with things like soy sauce, fish sauce, anchovies, tomato paste, Korean chili paste, Tabasco, mushroom ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Maggi, bullion, and, of course, MSG.
Mushroom ketchup! You know what's up
"environmentally friendly salt"
Yes shipping salt thousands of kilometers in big diesel fueled tankers is good for the environment.
The thing is that Iceland imports a lot of things from other countries, sending back those empty ships would be much more expensive in terms of money and fuel than taking advantage of them to export things from Iceland.
@@manjensen1710 yeah in terms of money it makes economic sense but its still using more diesel to ship than an if it were empty.
Nuclear powered cargo fleets will improve that wrong situation. Fear of modern fission technology seems to slow that possibility.

“Why is Icelandic Sea Salt So Expensive?”

It’s always a kicker when the price of a product is the result of inefficient production methods rebranded as ‘unique’ or ‘artisanal’.

For the comments saying "salt is salt," yes but also not really. I work at a local spice shop and we have a vast variety of salts. The difference between them all are the impurities in them which give them different tastes/color, but most importantly they have different crystal shapes, lending a different texture in your mouth. While table salt has round, even granules, something like a Cyprus salt, used as a finish, has a pyramid shape and will have a thin, crunchy texture. Moisture content plays a role as well.
Table salt is nasty. They add anticaking agents such as sodium aluminosilicate or magnesium carbonate to make it free-flowing.
As stated in the video, that factory produces 10 metric tons of salt a year or 10 million grams a year. If 90g of salt is $10.99 as they say, then that’s about $1.2 million a year. If $10.99 is retail, then they probably sell it for less for wholesale and then there’s operating costs.
"What did u say!?"
"Aaaaaargh....i love the salt...i love the salt!!"
the floor is salt, the wall is salt and even the air is salt. You breath that in and you can definitely taste the salt.
