Sorry everyone, it's been a few weeks since our last Tuesday Takeaway! Everyone needs a brief hiatus every once in a while, right?
This week's giveaway is Peruvian Pink Salt! This salt comes from an ancient ocean, trapped underground, which feeds a spring located 10,000 feet high in the Andes Mountains in Maras, Peru. The warm spring water seeps into terraced ponds located in the Sacred Valley of the Incas.
This pale-pink beauty is a great all-purpose salt with a sturdy crunch - perfect for use with a mortar and pestle and ground until the desired texture is reached.

I have "liked" you on Facebook for quite a while, but whenever I try to follow your twitter it says that that page doesn't exist.

There are two places that I would love to visit for food. 1. France & 2. Germany. France edges out Germany by a nose, because I have never been there (I was in Germany as a child, but would love to go back as an adult with a more open mind and better developed palette).

I figured out the issue with twitter. When I click you link to follow you, it takes me to SaltyDogBlog,and tells me that page doesn't exist. I went to twitter and searched for the same but added the "s" after "Dog" and there you are. Yay...happy dance, I can follow your twitter.

Hmmmmm, Mexico because it's so huge and has so many regions of cuisine or Greece because I've never been and I've heard is amazing in all respects, culinary and otherwise? Decisions, decisions....ok, Greece.
