French Fleur de Sel is the finest finishing salt in the world‚ hand-harvested from the surface of salt ponds along the Brittany coast, where only the most delicate crystals form. Because of its exceptional texture and pure flavor, it should be added after cooking rather than during, preserving its subtle crunch. Use it to finish fish, eggs, pasta, meats, and even desserts like salted caramel and chocolate.

About This Blend

Fleur de Sel ‚ "the flower of salt" ‚ forms only when specific wind and weather conditions allow bright white crystals to bloom on the surface of Brittany's solar evaporation ponds before they sink.

Flavor Profile

Fleur de Sel forms only when specific Atlantic wind conditions allow salt crystals to bloom on Brittany's pond surfaces ‚ a window so brief the yield is a tiny fraction of standard sea salt from the same pools.
