Fleur de Sel de Grande (French Sea Salt)

Fleur de Sel, or ‘flower of salt’, is the fine, flaky crust that forms on the surface of the Gurande salt marshes in France. It is hand-harvested by artisans using traditional Celtic methods. This unrefined salt has a delicate, crisp texture and a clean, nuanced flavor that is less harsh than processed salts. It’s prized by chefs as a ‘finishing salt’—sprinkled over dishes just before serving to add a final burst of flavor and a subtle crunch. Use it on salads, grilled meats, vegetables, and even caramel or chocolate desserts.
