Traditionally harvested in the Guerande, Camargue and Re Island regions of France, Fleur de sel is the purest form of salt there is, in the way that it comes directly from the evaporation of the sea, not from inland salt deposits like table salt and kosher salt.
Hand harvested on the salt marshes of Ile de Re (Re island), in Charente-Maritime (western France), this premium quality fleur de sel (known as flower of salt in English or flor de sal in Spanish) is unprocessed, unrefined, unadulterated and gluten free.
With its high moisture content and its crystal shape (more compact than flaky salts yet not as granular as fine or even coarse salt), Fleur de sel is a unique finishing sea salt.
Highly concentrated in minerals and lower in sodium than regular salt, this fleur de sel by Straight from France will linger in your mouth. Sprinkle this fleur de sel on fresh tomatoes, salads, fish, meat or roasted vegetables to give them a little extra taste. It is also a great seasoning salt on French delicacies like Foie gras or on fruits, caramels, chocolates and desserts.
This premium quality fleur de sel is made and imported straight from France.
One method of gathering sea salt is to draw seawater into marsh basins and allow the water to evaporate, leaving behind the salt that was dissolved in it.
As the water evaporates, most of the salt precipitates out on the bottom of the marsh (and is later collected as ordinary sea salt), but some salt crystals float on the surface of the water, forming a delicate crust of intricate pyramidal crystals. This is fleur de sel (flower of salt).
The delicacy requires that it be harvested by hand, so this is done with traditional methods using traditional tools. Its flavor is unlike any other and far superior to regular sea salt.
Straight from France's Fleur de sel is all natural (unprocessed, unrefined, unadulterated and gluten free) and contains nothing but Fleur de sel.
Because we work with small producers, we have more control over the production process and know that our Fleur de sel sea salt is not inadvertently mixed with coarse salt like other more industrial brands.
Fleur de sel is only used to flavor food. It is not, however, used in place of salt during the cooking process. Instead, it is added just before serving, like a garnish, a "finishing salt," to boost the flavor of eggs, fish, meat, vegetables and delicacies like foie gras.
Fleur de sel can also be used to make chocolate and caramel!
