Gourmet Salt Sampler
The Gourmet Salt Sampler includes three unique salts for the exploration of possibilities of this premier gourmet seasoning and essential ingredient.
Fleur de Sel is an all-natural sea salt from Brittany France. This particular Fleur de Sel (flower of salt) is hand harvested in the town of Guerande between May and September. Rich in trace elements, the taste of Fleur de Sel is the complex balance of the sea and her minerals with small flaky crystals, a moist texture and slightly grey/pink cast. It is used generally to finish a dish, as a condiment, rather than a spice. Fleur de Sel de Guerande is a natural compliment to fresh raw vegetables and salads and can elevate the flavor of grilled meats and fish.
Himalayan Pink Salt by Himalania comes from the foothills of the Himalayan Mountains. Originally a marine fossil that was formed during the Mesozoic era, Himalayan Pink Salt has been enriched by mineral deposits for more than 200 million years and gets its unique pink speckled color from the natural richness derived from iron and other minerals. The combination of its perfect granulometry and original color make this a truly unique salt. Whether consumed raw or cooked, the subtle crunch and incomparable taste will delight your senses.
Flor de Sal con Hibiscus, which means Flower of Salt with Hibiscus, is unrefined and unbleached to preserve its texture and mineral content. This gourmet salt with exotic Hibiscus flower petals from Majorca transmits a widely recognized scent often found in Asia and in many traditional dishes. Flor de Sal con Hibiscus is a wonderful complement to meat dishes, not only for its flavor but also for its aroma and color.
The Gourmet Salt Sampler includes one 8 ounces net weight violet colored jute bag of Fleur de Sel de Guerande, one 5.3 ounces net weight canister of Flor de Sal con Hibiscus, one 8.8 ounces net weight canister of Himalayan Pink Salt and one Olive Wood Mini Salt Spoon made in France (2 5/8″ in length).
