Pyramid Salt (Fleur de Sel) | 2-12 mm

Pyramid salts are undoubtedly among the most beautiful natural salts on earth - extraordinary and charismatic in structure, crunchy in consistency and pleasantly mild and exquisite in taste. The fine-walled pyramids virtually melt in your mouth. Our salt pyramids get their unusual shape from a special extraction process. For this purpose, seawater from the Indian Ocean is concentrated into a brine in evaporation basins with the support of the sun and wind. When the brine is saturated (26% salt content), fine salt crystals form on the water surface. The crystals combine and form small square pyramids that slowly ¨grow¨. The fine pyramids are carefully harvested by experienced salt workers with special tools before they become too heavy and then sink. The pyramids are then dried in special drying houses using pure solar energy - a real fleur de sel in pyramid form, so to speak. Due to their decorative appearance and filigree structure, pyramid salts are the perfect salt for seasoning at the table. The mild and exquisite taste is ideal for salting steaks, fish or pasta. Due to the low residual moisture, the salt pyramids are even suitable for the salt mill.
