I know the term gets thrown around a lot, but is this genuine 'meme' level cooking apparatus or is there something good behind it?
Let me get this straight.
I'm supposed to chop on that and things get salty.
How do you control how much though?

you can't. It's the will of God.
>>7862514
It's for baking
>>7862514
Your supposed to smash them up and grind them in a mortar, then you just use as much as you like

Seems like you'd ant to separate out what looks like iron oxide first. Dirty ass chinese nigger salt.

Nothing good about it at all.
It's normal salt with a few extra inconsequential minerals that give it a color.

Might be cool to get one crazy hot in a 500 degree oven, remove it and sear scallops on it...

Eh. There's some merit to using a block of salt for various purposes. Most of the "reasons" to use himalayan pink salt in particular are a meme, but for this application it at least provides some nice aesthetics.
