Fleur de Sel
Meaning "flower of salt", Fleur de Sel is an artisan sea salt comprised of fine, light crystals formed naturally on the surface of salt evaporation ponds. Harvested by hand in the Guérande region of France by traditional "Paludiers" (salt farmers), this salt is distinguished by a delicate, pure flavor and high concentration of minerals. Prized for centuries by cooks as the premier finishing salt for both savory and sweet dishes. Try a pinch on top of your next chocolate dessert for something extraordinary!
