What Makes It Different
A real ingredient, the way nature made it.
Great Tasting Flavor
Clean, mild, balanced. The kind of salt that lets ingredients shine instead of overpowering them.
Natural Trace Minerals
Naturally harvested, naturally lower in sodium, with the trace minerals nature put there.
Refined vs. Natural
Most table salt is highly processed. Oro Blanco isn't.
Conventional table salt is stripped of everything except sodium chloride. Oro Blanco is naturally harvested, gently dried, and packaged unprocessed.
Conventional Table Salt
- Highly refined and heavily processed
- Stripped of naturally occurring minerals
- Treated with anti-caking additives
- One thing only: salty
- Mass-produced, not hand-harvested
Oro Blanco Sal de Colima
- Naturally harvested by hand
- Trace minerals intact
- No additives, ever
- Lower sodium than table salt
- Family-rooted, generationally harvested
Real ingredients shouldn't be a luxury. They should just be on the shelf.
Shop Oro BlancoOur Story
Born from 400 years of family tradition.
Oro Blanco was inspired by our family's roots in Colima, Mexico, a heritage stretching back over 400 years. Along Colima's Pacific coast, sea salt has been harvested from natural coastal lagoons for generations and used daily in traditional cooking.
For centuries, families in the region have relied on this naturally harvested sea salt as a kitchen staple, not as a specialty product, but as everyday seasoning passed from one generation to the next.
Our goal is simple: bring that tradition to more kitchens across the United States. A real ingredient, harvested the way it has been for centuries, at a price that lets it be an everyday pantry staple.

Questions about the salt.
Is Oro Blanco coarse or fine ground?
Coarse. The label calls it grano natural, meaning the crystals are left at the size they come out of the lagoon rather than milled down. That gives you larger, irregular grains that hold their shape on food instead of disappearing into it.
How do I cook with a coarse salt?
Use it anywhere the salt has time to dissolve or where a little texture is welcome. Season meat and fish before they hit the heat, salt pasta water and brines, stir it into soups and sauces, and finish roasted vegetables or a sliced steak right before serving.
For baking, where salt has to distribute evenly through a dry mix, a fine grind measures more predictably. A quick crush between your fingers works if coarse is what you have.
Is it really 33% lower in sodium than table salt?
Yes, by volume. The crystals are larger and less dense than refined table salt, so a teaspoon of Oro Blanco holds noticeably less sodium than a teaspoon of table salt. You season to taste the way you always have and take in less sodium doing it.
Is Oro Blanco iodized?
No. Iodine is added to conventional table salt during processing, and Oro Blanco is unrefined, so nothing is added to it at all. If you rely on iodized salt as your iodine source, keep that in mind and talk to your doctor about what makes sense for you.
What is in it besides salt?
Nothing. No anti-caking agents, no bleaching, no additives of any kind. Just sea salt harvested from the lagoon, dried, and packed. The trace minerals in it are the ones that were there naturally.
How is this different from your French Grey Sea Salt?
Different coasts, different traditions, both hand-harvested and unrefined. French Grey comes from the clay-lined salt ponds of Brittany, France, and carries the grey tint and the moisture that clay gives it. Oro Blanco comes from the Pacific lagoons of Colima, Mexico, and is a brighter, drier white crystal with a milder finish.
Plenty of people keep both: French Grey as the everyday mineral salt, Oro Blanco for cooking and finishing where you want a cleaner, less assertive flavor.
How should I store it?
Reseal the bag and keep it somewhere cool and dry, away from the stove. Because it is a natural sea salt with no anti-caking agents, it can pick up a little moisture and clump. That is normal and not a sign anything is wrong. Break the clumps up with a spoon or your fingers and use it as usual.
Where exactly does it come from?
The coastal lagoons of Colima on Mexico's Pacific coast, where families have harvested sea salt for more than 400 years. Oro Blanco brings that same salt to kitchens in the United States through Nature's Pantry.
