Organic Mediterranean Sea Salt 1–3 mm, Croatia

Product description

This organic Mediterranean sea salt from the Nin saltworks in Croatia is traditionally harvested from clean seawater and gently dried. The medium-coarse white crystals with a grain size of 1–3 mm dissolve evenly and deliver a mild, clean saltiness in the kitchen.

Thanks to artisanal production in Biova’s partner saltworks, the sea salt remains natural, unrefined and free from additives or anti-caking agents. The granulated structure flows well, is easy to dose and is suitable both for bulk buyers and for everyday use in the home.

In use, this organic Mediterranean sea salt is highly versatile: it seasons vegetables, pasta, fish, meat, salads and soups as well as Mediterranean oven dishes. The 1–3 mm grain size is ideal as a grinder salt, for finishing at the table, and for marinades, pickling and salt crusts.

Origin

The sea salt comes from Croatia, from the Nin seawater saltworks on the Adriatic coast. Sunny summers, steady winds and the Mediterranean climate support natural evaporation and consistent Biova quality.

Cultivation / production / harvest

For this Biova sea salt, seawater is channelled into shallow evaporation ponds and concentrated solely by sun and wind. After crystallisation, the salt is harvested by hand, gently dried and sieved to achieve an even, granulated grain size of 1–3 mm.

Characteristics

This organic Mediterranean sea salt is natural, unrefined and free from anti-caking agents or other additives. The medium-coarse white grain allows precise dosing, offers a pleasant mouthfeel and makes the salt ideal for bulk use, grinders and further processing.

Differences in origin and processing

Unlike industrially produced vacuum salt, this sea salt is obtained directly from seawater through natural evaporation in lagoons. Its location on the Adriatic and the consistent handcraft in the Nin saltworks shape the appearance, grain size and the clear, mildly salty character of the crystals.

Taste & aroma

Sensory-wise, this organic Mediterranean sea salt is mildly salty with a clear, clean salt note and no dominant bitter tones. It has no intrusive odour of its own and enhances the natural flavour of dishes instead of masking it.

Suggested uses

• As an all-purpose cooking and table salt for vegetables, pasta, fish, meat and oven dishes
