Salt and Celery Powder (Natural Curing Alternative)

Salt and Celery Powder (Natural Curing Alternative) is a curing blend used in charcuterie and home meat preservation as a natural alternative to synthetic curing salts; it combines salt with celery powder (a source of natural nitrates) to help preserve color and inhibit bacterial growth. It’s commonly used in styles of cured sausage, ham and bacon where a nitrate source is desired but synthetic nitrites are avoided. In terms of nutrition, Salt and Celery Powder (Natural Curing Alternative) is very high in sodium — about 95g of salt per 100g — and is intended to be used sparingly rather than eaten directly; the celery powder component contributes small amounts of minerals such as iron and calcium. As a practical point, this mix can reduce reliance on industrial nitrite preparations while providing preservative action from naturally occurring nitrates, but because of its high salt content it should be measured carefully when curing to control final sodium levels in the finished product.Read more
