ZERO JAPAN Salt Box - White - 15oz / 420ml Made in Japan

This salt pig was recommended by the Serious Eats team and was cheaper in Australia than the US (presumably as it comes from Japan). Everything that the Serious Eats article rated such as the easy open lid and large capacity is true. Attractive design and easy to use. Highly recommended.

This is a GREAT Product. There are a few things I REALLY Like about it. #1 - The lid is attached - so you can always find it. #2 - It matches our china. #3 - It has a large opening so even I can get my fingers in to get some salt to sprinkle. #4 - It is large enough (15oz) so I don't have to fill it all the time. #5 - The lid is removable so you can wash it without damaging the wood lid. And finally, #6 - It's attractive and makes a nice addition to our spice board!

I could probably do without the little handle (don't find it useful and it bumps against the backsplash), but otherwise it's such a nice salt box! I have a one for kosher salt and one for sea salt, which are nice to use in pinches, by hand. I love that I can flip open the lid a bit with the back of my hand and grab a pinch of salt, which will then close on its own. I don't think I'll get one for regular table salt, though, since that's something that works better in a taller jar (I spoon it out for salting water, or for baking).

Brilliant love it. Keeps salt dry esp compared to leaving in fish. Love the handle and lid. Looks really cool

This salt cellar looks good on my kitchen counter. It is also just want I wanted - large enough for my husband to use easily. The lid flips up and stays that way. Extremely satisfied with my purchase. Based on other reviews, I had expected it to take a while to arrive but it was pretty quick, less than two weeks from Japan.
