Have you ever made your favorite dish and it didn’t seem to come out the way you wanted it to, because the salt didn’t dissolve into the food correctly? Felt that graininess instead of a smoothed over flavor? Well, this will never happen again with Fleur de Sel! This salt is magnificent, just pinch it onto your food and it dissolves instantly! This is because normal table salt is made of around 7% water while Fleur de Sel is made of roughly 10% water. Meaning, Fleur de Sel will melt beautifully into food, especially moist foods.

Hand harvested, sea salts with a moist taste. It is harvested by only swiping the top layer of the salt pans, before it reaches the bottom. So, you can be sure it’s of the best quality, if it is done any other way it is not true Fleur de Sel. Can you image having salt that is cultivated and sifted by hand? Delicious, you can taste the beautiful sand and salt as it mingles with the food in your mouth. Hand harvest is a great technique.
You can tell because every so often you will find grey specs of rich sand in the salt, proof of its earthy, moist nature. The nutritional factors make it sought after as well.
