Taste
Gourmets often believe sea salt to have a better taste and texture than ordinary table salt. In applications where sea salt's coarser texture is retained, it can provide a different mouth feel and changes in flavor due to its different rate of dissolution. The mineral content also affects the taste. Some seasalt contains sulfates. It may be difficult to distinguish sea salt from other salts, such as pink "Himalayan salt", or rock salt (halite).

Famous quotes containing the word taste:
“After mist has wrapped us again
in fine wool, may the taste of salt
recall to us the great depths about us.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
“A taste for simplicity cannot endure for long.”
—Eugène Delacroix (1798–1863)
“The difference between style and taste is never easy to define, but style tends to be centered on the social, and taste upon the individual. Style then works along axes of similarity to identify group membership, to relate to the social order; taste works within style to differentiate and construct the individual. Style speaks about social factors such as class, age, and other more flexible, less definable social formations; taste talks of the individual inflection of the social.”
—John Fiske (b. 1939)
