Application

Fleur de sel is a natural salt created by the sea, sun and wind. It is a real, unrefined and unprocessed salty delicacy. After natural evaporation, with the help of sunlight and wind, a frost-thin layer is formed with fine, fluffy, snowflake-like crystals that melt in the mouth. This unusual salt is highly prized and often used as a finishing touch to a variety of foods. As for its effect on human health, it is a salt rich in minerals. With its unusual flavor and texture, Fleur de sel is held in high esteem in the culinary world. It is so delicate that it is impossible to really salt food with it. At the same time, it sharpens and prolongs the sweet flavors of desserts. It is not subjected to heat treatment and is added to the food immediately before serving. Due to its high humidity, the salt dissolves slowly in the mouth and retains the taste for a longer time. Fleur de sel is a suitable salt for hot and cold meat, seafood, fish and vegetable dishes. It is also wonderfully combined with desserts, as the subtle marine flavor emphasizes the taste characteristics of ice creams, sweets and creams, dark chocolate and fruit.
