Foodie's video: Salt of Kanawha: Unearthing Appalachia s Buried Treasure

The briny legacy of an ancient sea under the Appalachian mountains is inspiring a seventh generation of salt-makers to resuscitate their family business. Their incredibly structured salt is, in turn, inspiring chefs across the country — most notably Sean Brock — to standardize on its use in their restaurants.
