Once upon a time (a couple of hundreds of millions of years ago) crystallized sea salt beds, now deep within the Himalayans, were covered by lava. Aside from being kept it in a pristine environment that has been surrounded by snow and ice year round, the lava is thought to have protected the salt from modern-day pollution leading to the belief that Himalayan Pink salt is the purest salt to be found on earth. It is now hand-mined from the mountains and brought to the culinary market.

Passionate about food and entertaining, Ingrid Hoffmann spends each day sharing her enthusiasm and talent with an international audience. Ingrid launched Simply Delicioso (www.simplydelicioso.com) on Food Network and hosts her own Spanish-language cooking and lifestyle show,Delicioso, on Galavision/Univision. Aside from the two shows, Ingrid pulled together a compilation of her recipes and entertaining ideas, which are showcased in her first cookbook,SIMPLY DELICIOSO: A Collection of Everyday Recipes with a Latin Twist (February 2008, Clarkson Potter/Random House).

Ingrid's fascination with food, cooking and style began as a little girl. She started cooking with her mother, a Cordon Bleu chef, at such a young age that she needed a stool to reach the stove. With her mother she discovered not only a love of cooking, but found a flair for entertaining, and in no time developed her own distinctive style.

Ingrid was raised in Colombia and later moved to Miami, where she opened La Capricieuse, a high-fashion luxury boutique in Coconut Grove. Soon after, the store grew into a chain of four boutiques with a flagship on the island of Aruba, as well as a men's shop in Miami.

THE STORY BEHIND CHOLULA

Cholula's Flavorful Fire finds its roots in a well-guarded recipe that's over 100 years old. This recipe blends pequin peppers, red peppers and spices in a delicate process that produces a perfect balance between flavor and heat.

Cholula Hot Sauce was named after the 2,500 year old city in Mexico. The term Cholula is derived from the pre-Hispanic word "Chollollan" meaning "the place of the retreat." Cholula's wooden cap and distinctive yellow label represent the care and quality tradition of Mexican artisanship. Cholula's intriguing packaging has become a quality icon, a symbol recognized by millions.

What was started as a local favorite soon gained international acclaim. Bottles of the zesty, delicious hot sauce began popping up in restaurant kitchens and retail stores all over North America.

Next week come with us to visit with Kimberly Santiago, the founder of Saltopia Salts.

Saltopia creates a world where the most essential mineral is infused with unexpected flavors. These savory salts create a stir within any edible ration.

SALTOPIA uses only naturally harvested sea salts from all over the world and we actually infuse a pure flavor by allowing the salts to absorb the natural juices & aromas that are extracted from herbs, fruits, vegetables, wine and other organic goods that we hand select. While there may be other companies making "infused sea salts" - they are extremely different because they use dry or dehydrated ingredients with little flavor.

Each of SALTOPIA's unique sea salts has it's own proprietary recipe that incorporates a chemistry of sea salt and pure flavor.
