If openess and respect was a person, it would be Emmy personified. Imagine if everyone shared at least an ounce of what values Emme has, the world would surely be a better place. Love from The Philippines.
Your comment lowkey makes it sound like you're implying the foods she tries are normally supposed to gross people out. As if she took one for the team o.0
Hi, I work for Xroads! Our family here spends so much time and effort to make these salts an enjoyable experience from the moment they’re opened till they’re done. It makes me so happy to see the product receive so much positive feedback and attention. We hope you enjoy
You know you've found your community when you can get excited about watching a 10 minute video on salt! Thanks for showing us a new find! Also, salt was used to preserve food before refrigeration.
Brilliant!! So awesome to see Emmy spreading these bewildering food traditions! There’s an awesome short documentary on business insider that shows how this amazing salt is made and how they are working hard to keep this beautiful tradition alive.
FEATR is a channel that has a variety of Filipino Food Documentaries (Asin Tibuok included)! I also prefer FEATR's documentary as it removes the "exotic" tone that the Business Insider documentary had at times.
@@X22GJP I’m not. Like many I’m just interested in different cultural practices and traditions. And if that’s what you believe, then why are you here and watching this?😂 Clearly if you did actually watch it you’d have seen that salt isn’t just salt- Everything from how it’s made to the environment affects its taste and depth of flavour. Just like sugar, honey etc… There are thousands of different salts worldwide! But mostly I think it’s very important to help keep these decade old traditions alive, it creates jobs in a community greatly in need. And in this day and age many practices are kept alive by interest from the international community, and videos like these help spread the word. It lets us experience something that would not have been possible just 100 years ago! But if you’d rather play Roblox, go right ahead! No need to be salty.
So strange, I was in the middle of watching an Insider Business video on how this salt is made when I got the notification for this video! I’m very glad to have learned first how it’s made and now get to hear Emmy describe the experience of cooking with and eating it! 😊
You my Dear, were analyzed by AI, lol! The moment you watch a different type of genre or show any interest in something other than your usual, they pile up more like it and send down your own personalized conveyor belt! 😆
@@Beezer.D.B. Not in this case, I just happened to be watching a video about this topic while Emmy uploaded another about the same thing. I got the notification because I’m subscribed to Emmy and have all notifications turned on for her channel. Not the algorithm, just a strange coincidence!
that's not strange at all, when something becomes trendy, everyone starts talking about it, and in this case, making videos about it, so of course there'd be more videos all coming at the same time, on the currently trendy topics. give it few months, and no one will remember this
@@mimosveta how eyerolling. Rather than admit you got the first part wrong, you double down. People still make videos about it until now. Look at sortedfood
I've always wanted to try it. Unfortunately, I live in a different island far from Bohol, and I have never seen it in our markets. It's quite expensive for a salt. Last time I checked, it's about $10 worth of local currency, when regular salt is less than a dollar per kilo. But when I checked international websites that sell these, the price increase is insane! Made my eyes bug out! I'll definitely buy one when I get the chance. It's really pretty.
@@RACHEL2320damn! When I checked a couple of years ago, it was about $100! Better remember to buy a lot of this and bring it overseas when I get a chance lol
The documentary I watched said the salt couldn't be sold in the Philippines because there was a law that all salt sold had to be iodized. So the producers can only sell it for export.
I saw this salt featured on Business Insider and wanted to order some. I'm so happy you did for me. There's another salt feature they did about a guy in Mexico who hauls sea water quite a bit to his families traditional salt beds. I did get some of that and it was wonderful. Please highlight as many of these traditional makers so they can be "found" before their traditions are lost.
I enjoy your content immensely. I’ve learned, laughed and share in your gleeful giggly excitement over food! I love that your content is clean. You’re a special content creator. I pray you and your family have a wonderful, blessed Christmas!🤶 🎅🏼 🎄
Marvelous! I love it when traditional foods and crafts are able to continue so that they are not lost. It's worth paying extra for these special experiences. THanks, Emmy, for showing this to us!
Oh my goodness! I wish I would’ve known about this salt before Christmas. It would have made perfect gifts for my children who all have their own homes now. This salt is, indeed stunning and thank you for letting us know about it. Maybe now this lost art will not go by the wayside. Happy Holidays everyone! 💜
This really would make a great gift! Salt is something you use all the time and it doesn't hurt to have one that has a great presentation and historic value behind it.
@@7531monkey ~ It’s actually 139.00 dollars. But, if I think about it, it’s just just the amount of money I spend on them buying several gifts. One special gift is worth it. And, I’d welcome you into my family anytime. 💜🥰💜
I have POTS--postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome--and I am very dependent on salt to help me function. 5000mg per day in comparison to the standard 2300mg (with extra water to offset the salt). I asked for fancy salts for Christmas this year.
Emmy, I just found out about this salt today. Your video popped up, so I was excited to hear what you had to say. I can't wait to try it myself. Have you ever tried the Peruvian Fluer du Sel from the Sacred Valley? That too, has a wonderful history and a marvelous taste. We were there on a trip and tasted it right from the salt pools and the stream leading from the mountain. Thank you for all of your knowledge you share.
This was so absolutely fascinating and you never cease to amaze me with all the wonderful food education you have given the world!! You’re such an amazing teacher and you deserve 100M+ subscribers !!! ❤
I've been wanting to buy this for some time. It's interesting how many different kinds of salt there are. It's very necessary to proper nerve and muscle function in the body, which is why all countries and cultures value it.
Himaliya salt I use for italy dishes, seasalt have 4 courses 1 normal 2 soft 3 ruff 4 texture smooth use many dishes, or cleaning mussels and clams, or rubbing to fish, then theres volcano salt boiled from the ground, ground salt taste great lot of minarels like sand salt, but thers also salt made out plants😅
I have 1 of this which my brother gave me and brought it back here in the States with me. Subtle taste, almost like refined, luxurious salt, definitely one of the better salts out there.
Now that... is a saltlick.. I am sure that any horse worth it's salt would love to have that! Emmy you never cease to amaze me with the rare finds that you come up with for your video content.. Wish you, your husband & kids a very Merry Christmas and a Bright & Joyous 2024! From Ontario Canada!
Thank you for highlighting this! Please help us keep it alive by bringing attention to it. Im from the philippines and have only heard of this recently. Thank you emmy!
hi miss emmy! i’ve been watching your videos since i was in the 6th grade (i’m in my early 20’s now). i have been binge watching your videos again recently because i was craving your bubbly personality and wanted to be transported back to my younger days. i am so honored that you made this video because my dad is from bohol! this video felt so close to my heart, thank you so much for being a source of my happiness emmy! 🥹💗
I watched a special about this not too long ago, and I am very happy to hear there has been a resurgence of this tradition. I would love to see more resources spent on maintaining these rare traditions and practices that are on the brink of extinction for lack of a better word.
I remember watching it too. It was either a channel called something along the lines of "the most expensive", or on "5 minute docs" I can't remember which. Very interesting watch!
(Sorry for being *that* guy!) [pushing up my glasses] "Well actually..." Didn't think that old myth was still alive, but Roman soldiers wasn't regularly paid in salt. Sure, sometimes they could be given some of their supplies by the state/military, and salt was one of the most important to keep them healthy and well stocked with food. But they were all paid with money and bought most things they needed themselves. One of the most important items they bought was salt, to be able to preserve anything that needed to be. "Salarium" or "Salarium Argentum" (salt silver) was often used as a term for the Roman soldier's payment as some of it often went to buy the necessary salt. The few sources that say the Roman soldier was "paid" in salt are not contemporary and can't be confirmed. When mentioned that the soldiers were given salt it was often not (probably never) as a substitute for their regular payment, but a way to make sure they had salt even if in an area where the important commodity was hard to get or expensive. But the dinosaur clay egg salt is pretty cool. Not the most convenient way of salting your food, but I still would like one.
The idea of roman soldiers being paid in salt is an entirely modern creation, there's plenty of debate over this, but so far there's very little evidence specifically saying they were, whereas there's more evidence they were paid actual money, which of course they could use to buy salt, and food to put the salt on, cos salt alone's not much good if there's nothing to eat... :)
I just watched a video on asin tibouk a couple of weeks ago maybe. I had never heard of it before either. I think it would make a very unique gift for a foodie in one's life. Happy Holidays! 🎄🔔🌠
You should try Redmond "Real Salt" I think its called its mined right in Utah, USA. They make many salt products and flavors including a garlic infused salt that helps keep flies, fleas etc off farm & other animals
4:50 @emmy you're exactly right, it's not iodized. Which is the very reason they stopped making salt like this a few decades ago, since a law mandated salt sold in the Philippines to be iodized😂
Thanks for supporting a trandition almost lost. Hopefully as the world opens up its arms and accept these kind of foods, we can keep making them and keeping them alive.
I make a sweet rice porridge using coconut milk and a little sugar. Very good. Lately though I've started making a rice porridge using miso to flavor it. Also very good.
I prefer salt without added iodine. A law was passed in the Philippines that asin tibuok, or any kind of salt in the filipino market, need to be sprayed with potassium iodate (for the sodium aficionados out there). Some people say it taste the same with or without the iodine. For me, the added iodine has a bitter aftertaste.
It is as much a work of art as it is a practical foodstuff. The immense labor to produce the salt shows how important it was for all human society throughout our history.
We never had himalayan salt until I bought some 4 yrs ago. I actually prefer it over the regular table salt. It tastes so much nicer and saltier 😅 idk how to describe it
That's really cool. Not sure I would go to those lengths to get salt but it's an interesting process, I can sample it vicariously. Maldon salt isn't French by the way, it's British 😀
I’m happy that people outside the country get to try this. Majority of Local Filipinos do not have access to this salt because there is a Philippine law that mandates all salt sold locally must be iodized. That law practically killed the heritage salt industry. :(
I would have dipped Cucumber slices... Neutral flavor and disperses the salt more like you'd actually use it. Cukes and salt are my favorite veggie snack... well second after garden tomatoes with salt and pepper.
Hi Emmy! What are you going to do with the rest of the Asin Tibuok? Will you use it as a substitute for kosher salt in the rest of your cooking? Or save it for special applications? Thank you!
Looks spectacular. I am wondering if the saltiness level is because of how finally ground each was. It would make sense that a finer grind would dissolve faster.
@emmymade, I gifted my friend some homemade vanilla salt this holiday. Have your tried it? Great on oatmeal, toast, a sprinkle in caramel on dessert, a pinch in coffee. Try a little on lobster or scallops. You chose a salt you like, and grind the inside if a vanilla bean with it. Jar it up and store for a few weeks, shaking now and then.
it's actually a common myth about the Roman soldiers being paid in salt, as I learned recently in a, "Tasting History," video on YT (I forget which one). though you're correct about the, "salary," root word being from, "salt."
If openess and respect was a person, it would be Emmy personified. Imagine if everyone shared at least an ounce of what values Emme has, the world would surely be a better place. Love from The Philippines.

Honestly I'm surprised you don't have the "Hawaiian black lava salt" as many weird things you cook. 😂
Never have I ever heard of this salt
I prefer salt without added iodine. A law was passed in the Philippines that asin tibuok, or any kind of salt in the filipino market, need to be sprayed with potassium iodate (for the sodium aficionados out there).
Some people say it taste the same with or without the iodine. For me, the added iodine has a bitter aftertaste.
I hope your kids get well soon. It's a season that people usually get sick.
I did watch Asin Tibuok in Featr. They also featured other saltmakers.
I can't believe you've never tasted salt by itself, either! I used to eat salt when I was little. 😂
Hi Emmy love your videos, but thought I would tell you that Maldon sea salt comes from Maldon,Essex, England not France x
It is as much a work of art as it is a practical foodstuff. The immense labor to produce the salt shows how important it was for all human society throughout our history.
