Abstract:
1. A method of making a salt composition, consisting of: a. contacting from about 15% to about 30% by weight potassium chloride salt with an amount from about 0.1% to 3% by weight food grade acidulant in an aqueous solution at a temperature between about 150° F. and about 200° F. to form a liquid modified potassium chloride salt product, wherein the aqueous solution includes the addition of from about 60% to 80% water; b. mixing the modified liquid potassium chloride salt product with an amount from about 10% to 25% by weight carrier to form a liquid carrier modified potassium chloride salt solution, wherein the carrier is a starch molecule; and drying the liquid carrier modified potassium chloride salt solution to form a granular carrier modified chloride salt.
