Pure magnesium salt tastes slightly salty, but very different from table salt. In the correct proportions, Novasal primarily takes over the flavor-enhancing properties of sodium salt. At the recipe level, a replacement of approximately 30% is usually achievable without any difference in taste. Novasal has proven to be applicable, without loss of flavor, in a wide range of food categories, including bakery, dairy, snacks, meat, fish, plant-based alternatives, and most shelf-stable products such as sauces and soups.
