Maldon Sea Salt Flakes – catering tub 1.4 kg

Product description

Discover Maldon Sea Salt Flakes with their distinctive pyramid-shaped sea salt crystals from the English coastal town of Maldon. The bright, crunchy flakes melt pleasantly on the tongue and give dishes a clean, precise saltiness.

These hand-harvested sea salt flakes are traditionally produced without additives and gently dried. For this flake salt, Biova focuses on fully traceable origin, consistent quality and a coarse flake structure that can easily be crumbled and portioned between the fingers.

In ambitious home kitchens, professional catering or fine food retail, Maldon sea salt flakes are ideal as a finishing salt. The practical tub with around 1.4 kg of contents lets you use the coarse flake salt flexibly for seasoning at the table, final adjustments and decorative plating.

Origin

The sea salt comes from Maldon in Essex on the east coast of England, a region with a long salt-making tradition. The temperate maritime climate and the tides provide ideal conditions for producing high-quality sea salt flakes.

Cultivation / production / harvest

For Maldon Sea Salt Flakes, seawater is channelled into shallow pans and slowly evaporated. Controlled evaporation creates the characteristic pyramid-shaped flakes, which are skimmed off by hand, gently dried and packed as coarse flake salt.

Special features

Unlike standard granulated table salt, this flake salt offers a pronounced, crunchy texture. The delicate white flakes break easily between the fingers and, supplied in a tub for bulk use, are particularly practical for professional users and Biova customers with higher salt consumption.

Differences in origin and processing

Compared with industrially refined table salt, Maldon sea salt retains the natural structure and original character of sea salt. Traditional pan evaporation and hand-skimming differ clearly from modern vacuum or boiled salt processes, which Biova deliberately avoids.

Taste & aroma

The sea salt flakes have a pure, clean salt flavour with no bitter notes. Their crunchy texture creates a pleasant mouthfeel, while the neutral aroma makes this flake salt highly versatile in both hot and cold dishes.

Suggested uses

• As a finishing salt for steaks, fish fillets, grilled vegetables and pasta just before serving
• For sprinkling decoratively over salads, roasted vegetables, bread, focaccia and finger food
• For desserts such as caramel, chocolate or caramel sauces as a fine flavour contrast
