Morton TFC Purex Salt is commonly known as Table Salt and is manufactured and packaged by Morton in a bulk 50 pound bag.
Morton TFC Purex Salt is food grade sodium chloride that is treated with a minute amount of Yellow Prussiate which keeps it from caking. This is the most common form of table salt. It is a key ingredient in baking and is used to enhance flavor and help bring recipes together. Salt significantly increases dough and pastry texture quality. Without using salt in baking, final products are dramatically changed and can become tough and dense, as well as flat and greasy. It also impacts the fat texture in butter and controls the fermentation rate of yeast. Salt has a strengthening effect on gluten protein in dough and prevents bread from tasting bland.
As an ingredient in personal care products, sodium chloride cleans and polishes teeth and reduces mouth odor. It also imparts a flavor in oral products. Sodium chloride can also increase the thickness of the aqueous (water-based) cosmetics and personal care products.
