I think pyramid shaped salt crystals are really cool.

Since this kind of salt is pretty expensive, I decided to try to make some myself, using regular table salt. I think they turned out pretty well. If anyone's interested, here's the method I used.

It's amazing how nature forms these intricate shapes from something as simple as salt. Maybe our ancestors got some inspiration from them too...

Oh well, they taste good.
