Origin and description
“ THE MOST PRECIOUS AND FINEST OF ALL SALTS ”.
Fleur de Sel, meaning "flower of salt," is one of the finest sea salts and is harvested by hand from the surface of salt marshes. These precious salt crystals are formed by a perfect combination of sun, wind, and water and are known for their crisp texture and pure, mild flavor.
Taste and aroma
Mild, pure, with a delicate crispness that adds an elegant touch to dishes.
Application
Fleur de sel is ideal as a finishing salt, added to dishes at the end of cooking to enhance their flavor. It pairs wonderfully with salads, vegetables, grilled meats, fish, or even desserts like caramel or chocolate. The delicate crystals dissolve slowly, creating a more intense flavor experience.
Interesting facts
Fleur de Sel has been considered the "caviar of salt" for centuries and is especially prized in haute cuisine. The gentle hand-harvesting preserves the natural structure of the crystals, which distinguishes it from conventional table salt. Its minerals, such as magnesium, potassium, and calcium, not only contribute to its delicate flavor but also give the crystals their characteristic shimmer. In gastronomy, it is intentionally not used during cooking, as it retains its unique crunch only when used as a finishing salt. A little tip: Always store Fleur de Sel in a dry, dark place to preserve its exquisite quality for a long time.
