- French sea salt is known as the very finest.
- Sea salt in France is still hand harvested in the traditional way, by drying seawater in shallow pools.
- As the water evaporates, crystals begin to form.
- If wind, sun and temperature conditions are right, bright white crystals will form on the surface.
- This Fleur de Sel, the flower of the salt, must be harvested quickly before it precipitates back into the water.
- Fleur de Sel contains a high concentration of minerals, has premium flavor, and is valued for its texture.
- Because of this delicate texture and crunch, Fleur de Sel should be used for finishing dishes rather than during the cooking process.
- To use, sprinkle as a finisher on many savory and sweet dishes including fish, eggs, pastas, meats, cookies, and more.
