Answer:
By default, salt is kosher unless something is added to it to make it not kosher - usually flavourings. Food is not 'blessed by a Rabbi' to make it kosher, that is a myth. Salt labeled 'kosher salt' is identical to table salt, there is no difference nutritionally. You want to use sea salt if you're looking for something that has less sodium - sea salt is also kosher.
