What You Should Know

You'd spot MALDON Sea Salt Flakes in the spice or specialty foods aisle or on a chef's counter as a finishing salt for steaks, salads and baked goods. It has an artisanal, slightly luxurious vibe—used when you want a tactile, gourmet touch rather than everyday table salt. The flaky texture comes from minimal evaporation and hand-harvesting; with a single ingredient and no additives it behaves like a processed culinary ingredient rather than an ultraprocessed food.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:2 / 4

Processed Ingredients

Why this score?

Although single-ingredient and minimally processed, sea salt is an extracted/purified culinary ingredient used for seasoning, which places it in NOVA group 2 rather than as an unprocessed whole food or an ultraprocessed product. There are no additives or industrial formulations typical of NOVA 4.
