anyone know how nutrient rich maldon salt is? we really like it and i kind of assumed it was one of the "real" salts but anyone know more? i'm really just wondering if it's unrefined enough i guess. thanks!

Here is an explanation of how it is made. Boiled, but not processed further than that it sounds like. Count me in as a lover of Maldon as well! We are never without it at our house, but use it primarily as a finishing salt. So crunchy and wonderful.

it is yummy. i guess i'm just wondering, does the boiling count as refining? also, i always thought if it isn't refined it won't be white, but of course maldon is white. i don't know if i'm being too nitpicky or if we could be getting more nutrition from our table salt. we use the redmond's real salt for cooking, but i like how maldon crumbles easily in the fingers for easy pinch and sprinkling on food (plus the taste). any other thoughts anyone?
