Salt Substitute - Ciao le Sel! Iodized

Healthy alternative to salt with sesame, wakame and kombu

A tasty mixture of sesame seeds and wakame and kombu seaweed that adds flavour and intensity to dishes. Iodised and gluten-free. Ideal as a salt substitute in hot and cold dishes: meat, fish, rice, vegetables, salads and much more.

Why Reduce Salt?

Excessive consumption of table salt (sodium) and its presence in foods as a flavour enhancer lead us to be more mindful of our intake. The WHO recommends limiting daily table salt consumption to 5g to reduce the risks of high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease.

How it Works

Ciao le Sel! is a table condiment developed to stimulate salty taste receptors by acting on aromas and flavours. A synergy of selected aromatic herbs to:

• Replace the effects of salt as a flavour enhancer
• Gustatory satisfaction through Umami and Kokumi — flavours that provide pleasure in the mouth and a feeling of satiety
• Amplify the salty taste present in small quantities, with aromas identified by the brain as those of salty foods (e.g., the oregano-pizza combination)

How to Use

Use as a classic condiment — at the table, directly in dishes or during culinary preparations. The practical format with a dosing cap makes daily use easy.

Features

• Iodised
• Gluten-free
• Recyclable cardboard packaging and dosing cap

FAQs

What is the iodine content and can it vary?
Iodine is naturally present in the seaweed (kombu and wakame) used in the composition. According to the supplier's analysis, the iodine content is 62.8 mg/100g. As a natural product, this value may vary slightly, remaining in this order of magnitude.

Ciao le Sel products indicate a salt content — but shouldn't they be salt-free?
Ciao le Sel products contain no added salt. The salt content indicated in the nutritional tables is exclusively due to the sodium naturally present in the ingredients, calculated by the formula: salt = sodium × 2.5. It is not table salt — it is the salt equivalent of the natural sodium in the ingredients.
