Celtic Sea Salt – Celtic Sea Salt – Fleur de Sel

Mattisson Absolute Celtic Sea Salt comes from the Guerande, a region in Brittany. Mattisson Absolute Celtic Sea Salt is unwashed and unrefined. Mattisson Celtic Sea Salt Flower of Salt (Fleur de Sel) has been extracted in a special way. Fleur de sel is extracted from almost saturated water. The extraction takes place in two steps. The first time, only the top layer of the crystallized salt is recovered from the salt basins. This craft is time consuming and only a few grams can be gained per square meter (depending on circumstances). Because it is salt that has only just crystallized, it has a fine crystal structure. Then the second time the coarse salt is extracted, which is the lower salt with larger crystals near the bottom. After recovery, the salt is still dried. But the drying is not complete. Fleur de sel retains about 5% moisture, which also contributes to the character. The favorable conditions for extracting fleur de sel are only available for one month a year (from mid-July to mid-August in the Northern Hemisphere). Has a soft taste and white color and coarse structure. Mattisson Celtic Sea Salt Flower or Salt is ideal for use during food preparation.
