Genshin Impact has plenty of cooking ingredients, though some, like salt, can only be purchased from specific shops.

In Genshin Impact, gamers often cook dishes that heal their characters or provide useful buffs. Predictably, salt is a common ingredient in many of these dishes. Since it's an integral ingredient to many recipes, this article details all the locations where players can purchase salt in Genshin Impact.


Where to buy salt in Genshin Impact

Players can't process salt like they can with some other ingredients, nor can they find it lying around in the open world. Instead, gamers must purchase salt from one of three shops:

  1. Mondstadt General Goods
  2. Second Life
  3. Tsukumomono Groceries

All three of these stores sell salt for 60 Mora each. They all carry 100 salt in their inventory, which they restock daily.
