Givre de Sel frost salt

Egypt's Frosty Delicacy

ORIGIN AND DESCRIPTION

Frost salt , known as Givre de Sel , is a rare salt from the White Desert area of ​​Egypt, particularly between the Bahariya Oasis and the town of Qasr el Farafra. Its fine, airy crystals are visually reminiscent of frost or snowflakes. This unique salt is formed by the evaporation of water in underground salt deposits that were formed by a primeval sea about 70 million years ago.

The salt is traditionally harvested by Bedouins who know the exact location of the deposits. They remove the sand, expose the salt layers and collect the delicate crystals by hand. This laborious method and the rarity make frost salt a true delicacy.
