Description

In common usage, salt is a mineral composed primarily of sodium chloride (NaCl). When used in food, especially in granulated form, it is more formally called table salt. In the form of a natural crystalline mineral, salt is also known as rock salt or halite. Salt is essential for life in general, and saltiness is one of the basic human tastes. Salt is one of the oldest and most ubiquitous food seasonings, and is known to uniformly improve the taste perception of food, including otherwise unpalatable food. Salting, brining, and pickling are also ancient and important methods of food preservation.

एतत् लवणं जगतः सर्वेषु भागेषु उपयुज्यते । एतत् लवणम् आङ्ग्लभाषायां Salt इति उच्यते । आयुर्वेदे तु लवणं नाम सैन्धवं लवणम् एव । इदानीं जगति सर्वत्र उपयुज्यमानं सामुद्रं लवणम् । तन्नाम समुद्रात् प्राप्तं लवणम् । सामुद्रं लवणं केवलम् आहारत्वेन उपयुज्यते । किन्तु सैन्धवं लवणम् आहारत्वेन यथा उपयुज्यते तथैव औषधत्वेन अपि उपयुज्यते । एतत् लवणं सर्वेषाम् आहारपदार्थानां निर्माणे उपयुज्तते । मधुराणां भक्ष्याणां निर्माणे केवलं कदाचित् उपयुज्यते लवणम् ।
