Josu About Us
The Josu Story
The story of how Josu found its flavor is special; there’s no better way to put it. Josu was born of connection, family and community. It is a salt that paved the way back to prosperity for a community torn apart by Japanese occupation. Today, that salt still provides a deep sense of connection and history. It is a tale of our family, then and now.
Josu Salt – Farm to Table
How Josu Salt Is Made
Since the establishment of the salt farms on Imjado Island, 3 generations have lived on, worked and enhanced the salt farms. The practices used today may be modernized but the salt is still dried by the sun’s rays for processing and is still cared for by Kim Gi Suk’s family, now several generations larger. Today, Josu’s founders, Hae-Sin and Parker, visit her parents on the salt farm with their two children. Her parents, So and Chang, love waking to the beautiful scenery. Though many of the surrounding farms, owned by the municipality, are now leased to the Korean government to generate solar electricity, Hae-Sin’s father takes great pride in maintaining the family salt ponds, staying deeply grounded in his heritage. Just as salt has been used to preserve Korean dishes for generations, Hae-Sin and Parker knew this farm should be preserved for future generations, to help connect the Korean Diaspora to their heritage. It’s not only their family’s history that their Korean sea salt honors, but also the lives saved and lost throughout the struggle. For Hae-Sin, the salt farm now represents the story of her family and their commitment to helping one corner of a ravaged country find prosperity. She and Parker are thrilled to help expand Josu’s next chapter, where their children might be able to know the story, grow the business and understand a little more every year about Korea, its people and its beauty.
Variety Of Josu Salt Flavors!
We have various flavors of natural sea salt for your cooking, baking, or topping needs – shop our Amazon store to check out the options!
Just Salt
Our original salt is the purest form of prized Korean sea salt, rich with minerals. It enhances flavor as you cook and adds a splash of ocean freshness to finished dishes.
We love to use this salt in our Salted Tahini Swirl Brownies.
Ingredients: Sea Salt
What does it mean to be mineral-rich?
While ordinary table and kosher salts are made up of 100% sodium chloride, our salts contain a range of minerals essential for good health. Our traditional and natural process results in a precious Korean grey salt, that boasts some of the highest concentrations of calcium, potassium, and magnesium of any edible salt in the world.
What is cheonilyeom salt?
Cheonilyeom translates quite literally to “Sky-Day-Salt” and describes the traditional process for making Korean salt that we still use to this day. Solar Salt or Sun-Dried Salt is harvested from the sea then naturally dried in salt flats by the sun. This results in an earthier tasting salt with a larger/coarser grain!
Garlic Chive Salt
We think onions make almost everything better, so this salt combines two alliums: garlic and chives, along with a touch of pepper to boost the flavor of just about everything.
Ingredients:
Sea SaltGarlic PowderBlack PepperChives
Savory Mushroom
Gamchil means “taste that pulls you in” and that’s what we’ve created with a blend of shiitake mushrooms, roasted garlic, soybean powder and our aged salt that lends savory richness and leaves you wanting more.
Ingredients: Sea Salt, Dried Mushrooms, Roasted and Dried Soybeans, Dried Garlic

Farm to Table: On our farm on Imjado, we capture pristine seawater from the mineral-rich wetlands of Korea’s Southwestern coastline. As the long summer days slowly evaporate the water, the concentrated seawater is moved from the holding ponds onto ceramic drying beds, leaving behind a saline crust saturated with beneficial minerals.Once dried, our family members sweep the sun-bake salt particles and transport salt to be cured
