Product information "Greek Fleur de Sel, coarse 2–20 mm"
Product description
Discover Greek fleur de sel, a natural sea salt with coarse, irregular crystals of around 2–20 mm. These delicate salt flakes add a subtle Mediterranean touch to your dishes and create an attractive visual finish.
At Biova, this sea salt is carefully harvested by hand, air-dried and left unrefined. This preserves its structure, slight residual moisture and characteristic mineral content.
In creative cooking, the coarse fleur de sel is ideal as a finishing salt, sprinkled on just before serving. Whether vegetables, fish, meat or bread – Biova sea salt enhances flavours without overpowering them.
Origin
This sea salt comes from traditional salt pans on the Greek Mediterranean coast. Sunny weather, clean seawater and constant winds ensure consistently high-quality salt flakes.
Cultivation / Production / Harvest
For Biova sea salt, seawater is channelled into shallow ponds and slowly concentrated. As fine crystals form on the surface, they are skimmed off by hand, air-dried and packed in a coarse 2–20 mm grain size.
Characteristics
Typical are the slightly moist, delicate crystals that melt pleasantly on the tongue. Small-batch, artisanal harvesting and the absence of additives make this Biova fleur de sel an authentic natural product.
Differences in origin and processing
Sea salts vary by region in mineral content, crystal shape and residual moisture. Greek fleur de sel is known for its mild salinity and relatively large crystals, which are particularly well suited as a finishing salt.
Taste & aroma
On the palate, this sea salt is soft, rounded and pleasantly salty, without harsh or bitter notes. The coarse crystals add a light crunch, while a subtle hint of the sea and freshness defines its aroma.
Suggested uses
- As a finishing salt for grilled vegetables, fish and meat, sprinkled on just before serving.
- To season salads, carpaccio, bruschetta and other Mediterranean starters.
- For a special touch on bread, focaccia, butter or as a contrast on desserts such as caramel or chocolate.
