A Rare Mineral Gift

Salicrop Salt is proud to introduce a new way to season your food. Crafted from the remarkable Indian Salicornia plant, our 100% plant-derived seasoning offers a balanced mineral profile, deep umami flavour, and a more considered approach to sourcing.

Grown in carefully managed coastal ecosystems, Salicornia naturally absorbs marine minerals through its cell walls, creating a botanical alternative to traditionally mined or evaporated salt. From the sun-drenched coast of India to kitchens across New Zealand, every harvest is traceable, sustainably sourced, and crafted for those who value exceptional flavour and mindful choices.

What is Salicornia?

Salicornia is a salt-tolerant coastal succulent (halophyte). Rather than relying on traditional underground mining or open-air evaporation ponds, it naturally bio-absorbs marine minerals through its cell walls.

The result is a vibrant, whole-food seasoning with a balanced mineral profile, 50% less sodium than standard table salt, and a rich umami flavour. Grown in controlled terrestrial coastal ecosystems, Salicornia avoids direct ocean-borne particulate exposure, offering a botanical alternative naturally free from synthetic additives and marine microplastics.

Why we created this

We created Salicrop Salt because we believe exceptional flavour, conscious nutrition, and sustainable sourcing should go hand in hand. Many people are looking to reduce their sodium intake, but that shouldn't mean compromising on taste or choosing seasonings exposed to direct ocean-borne contaminants.

Our 100% plant-derived seasoning offers a naturally mineral-rich alternative with deep umami flavour. It's a simple everyday switch for those who value great food, thoughtful sourcing, and a more considered way to season every meal.
