====Kosher salt====
Sometimes ''kosher'' is used as an abbreviation of ''koshering'', meaning the process for making something ''kosher''; for example, ''[[kosher salt]]'' is a form of salt with irregularly shaped crystals, making it particularly suitable for preparing meat according to the rules of ''kashrut'', because the increased surface area of the crystals absorbs blood more effectively.<ref>{{cite web|url= http://legacy.mos.org/sln/SEM/ksalt.html |title= Kosher Salt |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20151230171127/http://legacy.mos.org/sln/sem/ksalt.html |archive-date= 2015-12-30 }}</ref> In this case the type of salt refers to kosher style salt. Salt may also be kosher certified salt, or both. Certified kosher salt follows ''kashrut'' guidelines.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Kosher Salt Guide |url=https://seasalt.com/salt-101/about-salt/kosher-salt-guide |access-date=2024-07-29 |website=seasalt.com}}</ref> Sometimes the term "coarse kosher salt" is used to designate salt that is both kosher style and kosher certified.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.mortonsalt.com/home-product/morton-coarse-kosher-salt/ |title=Morton® Coarse Kosher Salt |publisher=Morton Salt |access-date=2022-08-24}}</ref> The term "fine kosher salt" is sometimes used for salt that is certified kosher but not kosher style.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.diamondcrystalsalt.com/product/fine-kosher-salt | title=Fine Kosher Salt &#124; Diamond Crystal® Salt }}</ref>
