Bamboo salt (죽염, jukyeom) is sea salt that’s packed into bamboo trunks, sealed with clay, and then roasted at high temperatures. This traditional Korean method was originally designed to detoxify and mineralize sea salt, enhancing both its health benefits and energetic purity.
But the real magic? It’s in how it’s made—and who makes it.
