The unique light grey colour and characteristic taste of the Celtic Sea salt make it perfect for many dishes.
Celtic Salt is a type of sea salt that is traditionally harvested from the coastal regions of France, particularly from the region of Brittany. The salt is made by using a traditional method known as “paludier” where seawater is collected in shallow pools and then evaporated by the sun and wind. This method preserves the natural mineral content and produces high-quality sea salt.
Celtic salt is typically grey in colour and has a moist, crumbly texture. It has a distinct, rich, and slightly sweet flavour, with a hint of minerals, due to its high mineral content, which is said to include more than 80 trace minerals.
Celtic salt is often used as a finishing salt and is popular in cooking and baking. It can be added to a variety of dishes to enhance the flavour and add some colour. It’s also used in cooking to make salt blocks for grilling and searing and in spa treatments like salt scrubs.
It is considered a healthier alternative to table salt because of its natural mineral content and the traditional harvesting method.
