Genshin Impact: How to Get Salt

Getting Salt in Genshin Impact

Salt is a cooking ingredient you can get in Genshin Impact, but at the time of writing, you’ll only be able to obtain it by purchasing it from merchants. Unlike other valuable ingredients like sugar and sausages, it cannot be processed from raw materials.

Salt can be bought at the general goods stores in both Mondstadt and Liyue Harbor. You can buy up to 100 units at a time, and it only costs 60 Mora per unit, making it extremely easy to obtain.

Of course, it’s almost completely useless on its own and is best used as an ingredient for cooking up more effective dishes.

Crafted Meals

Below, we’ve listed all of the dishes that require salt in Genshin Impact:

  • Black-Back Perch Stew
  • Ham
  • Smoked Fowl
  • Sunshine Sprat
  • Wanmin Restaurant’s Boiled Fish
  • Woodland Dream
  • Bacon
  • Golden Crab
  • Zhongyuan Chop Suey

Aside from salt, you can buy a ton of other ingredients from the general goods stores as well such as pepper, milk, and onions. You can also obtain more valuable ingredients that you’d have to farm in the open-world like cabbages and potatoes. Considering how important food becomes as you get further into Genshin Impact, it’s definitely recommended that you stock up on ingredients when you get the chance.

That’s all you need to know about how to get salt in Genshin Impact. Be sure to check our guide wiki for more tips and information on the game.
