There are different forms of edible salt: unrefined salt (such as sea salt), refined salt (table salt), and iodized salt. Salt is a crystalline solid, white, pale pink or light grey in color, normally obtained from sea water or rock deposits. Natural sea salt includes vital trace minerals in addition to the sodium chloride. Edible rock salts may be slightly greyish in color due to this mineral content. 24

star anise2Star anise (Illicium verum) is a spice that closely resembles anise in flavor. 147
stevia2Stevia is a sweetener and sugar substitute made from the leaves of the plant species Stevia rebaudiana.

It is a small green plant originating from the border area between Paraguay and Brazil. 189
strawberries4The strawberry (Fragaria) is a genus of plants in the family Rosaceae, and the fruit of these plants. 102

sulphur dioxide (E220)3Sulphur dioxide is produced by burning sulphur. It is a colorless gas, used as preservative. It prevents enzymatic and bacterial spoilage of products. It also acts as an oxidizing agent, with bleaching effects. Finally, it stabilizes vitamin C in products and prevents discoloration of white wine. 131
sunflower lecithin77Commercial lecithin, as used by food manufacturers, is a mixture of phospholipids in oil. The source of this is sunflower oil. 163
sunflower oil7Sunflower Oil is the non-volatile oil expressed from sunflower (Helianthus annuus) seeds. Sunflower oil is commonly used in food as a frying oil. 19
sweetened condensed milk1Cow's milk from which water has been removed and to which sugar has been added, yielding a very thick, sweet product. 159

vanillin49A naturally occurring constituent of the vanilla pod, but not economically feasible to extract it from its natural source. Synthetic vanillin can be made by the oxidation of eugenol, or clove oil. Today, it's typically made from the lignin obtained from cooking and chemical extraction of sulfite water (a waste product of the paper industry). This method requires vanillin to be labeled as artificial flavor. 23
vegetable fats12Vegetable fats are substances derived from plants that are composed of triglycerides. Cocoa butter is about 10 times more expensive than vegetable fat, so adding vegetable fat to chocolate is the easiest way to come up with a cheap but inferior product. 89
vegetable glycerin1Glycerin is a neutral, sweet-tasting, colorless, thick liquid which freezes to a gummy paste and which has a high boiling point. It is a good solvent which aides herbalists in extracting botanical properties from plant materials without the use of alcohol, and it absorbs water from the air which makes it useful in conserving preserved fruit. 111
violet fragrance1A violet is a flower, usually Viola odorata for the purposes of culinary usage. 162
