Asin Tibuok: Discover Artisanal Boholano Sea Salt

Learn How Asin Tibuok is Made

Observe the art of handcrafting Asin Tibuok, the rare Boholano sea salt. This traditional process creates a smoky salt that is delicious grated over local cuisine. Coconut husks are soaked in seawater for three months before being dried and slowly burnt over an open fire to produce the perfect ash. Seawater is then filtered through the ash and cooked by hand, layer by layer, to achieve the final product. Each batch reflects the island’s rich artisanal culture, making this a rare and unforgettable thing to do in Panglao.
