Product information "Flor de Sal"
also: la fleur de sel, flor da sal, salt flower
Description:
Flor de Sal is a byproduct of the extraction of sea salt. In the salt marshes, an interaction of sun and wind creates small islands of the precious salt, which are removed by salt workers. Genuine Flor de Sal (the term is not protected, so you can also find moist sea salt under this name in the trade) can be recognized by the fine structure of the salt crystals, which can be rubbed effortlessly between the fingers and melt quickly on the tongue. And this is what makes this salt so special in terms of taste. It goes wonderfully with everything short fried, especially high quality fish and meat.
Our Flor de Sal comes from a small salt garden in the Eastern Algarve.
Usage:
We recommend to use Flor de Sal only for seasoning or for the final seasoning of the food, because it has, dissolved in water, no taste difference to sea salt.
Tip for high-quality beef steaks: Sprinkle the finished steak generously with Flor de Sal and freshly ground Tellycherry pepper. The salt crystals will melt onto the meat juices and make an excellent sauce!
Be sure to store the salt in an airtight container!
