Organic Mediterranean sea salt | medio plus | 1-3 mm

What is it about / Product description

Organic Mediterranean sea salt from the Croatian Nin saltworks is traditionally obtained from clean seawater and gently dried. The medium-coarse white crystals with a grain size of 1–3 mm dissolve evenly and bring a mild, clear salty note to your kitchen. As a natural table salt, it is ideal for daily use in Mediterranean and international cuisine.

Thanks to the artisanal production in Biova partner saltworks, the original structure of the sea salt is preserved. Refining, anti-caking agents and additives are consistently avoided, resulting in an unadulterated, unrefined sea salt. The granulated structure flows well, is easy to dose and is of interest to both bulk buyers and end consumers.

In the kitchen, Organic Mediterranean Sea Salt proves particularly versatile: it refines vegetables, pasta, fish, meat, salads and soups alike. The grain size of 1–3 mm is optimal for mills, for seasoning at the table, for pickling and marinating or for salt crusts. This way, Biova sea salt brings the authentic taste of the Mediterranean into your everyday life.

Origin

The sea salt comes from Croatia, specifically from the Nin seawater saltworks on the Adriatic coast. Sunny, dry summers, constant winds and a balanced Mediterranean climate create ideal conditions for the natural evaporation of seawater. In this sensitive coastal ecosystem, a high-quality Mediterranean sea salt is produced with clearly defined quality standards.

Cultivation / Production / Harvest

For this Biova sea salt, seawater is directed into shallow evaporation ponds and concentrated exclusively by sun and wind. After crystallisation, the salt is harvested by hand using traditional tools, gently dried and then sieved. This creates an even, granulated grain size of 1–3 mm, which is excellently suited for mills, bulk goods and further processing.

Special features

Biova Organic Mediterranean Sea Salt is natural, unrefined and free from additives or anti-caking agents. The medium-coarse structure ensures precise dosing, a pleasant mouthfeel and even seasoning of dishes. In contrast to highly refined table salt, the typical Mediterranean character with its clear, mildly salty note is fully preserved.

Differences in origin and processing

In contrast to industrially produced evaporated salt, this sea salt is obtained directly from seawater through natural evaporation in shallow lagoons. The special location of the Nin saltworks on the Adriatic and the Mediterranean climate differ significantly from deep ocean saltworks or rock salt deposits. The consistent manual work in the Biova partner saltworks shapes the appearance, grain size and quality of the white crystals.

Taste & smell

In sensory terms, Organic Mediterranean Sea Salt is mildly salty with a clear, clean salty note without intrusive bitter nuances. It has no dominant inherent odour and supports the natural flavour of dishes instead of masking it. This makes the sea salt suitable as a universal cooking and table salt for a wide variety of dishes.
