Sun Flakes Sea Salt, Flake Salt 1.0–4.0 mm

Product description

This sun flakes salt is a white sea salt flake harvested from a traditional sea saltworks on the coast of Pakistan. The delicate salt plates resemble ice crystals and melt gently on the tongue.

Careful handcrafting and gentle drying under glass create a crunchy fleur de sel with coarsely granulated flakes. Biova relies on carefully selected bulk salt with a consistent grain size of 1.0–4.0 mm.

Used as a decorative finishing salt, sun flakes salt refines hot and cold dishes right before serving. This flake salt is highly versatile in professional kitchens, catering and for buffet or table presentations.

Origin

The sea salt comes from Pakistan, where intense sunshine and constant coastal winds provide ideal conditions for sea saltworks. This origin stands for natural, snow‑white flake salts in Biova quality.

Cultivation / production / harvest

Seawater is channelled into shallow ponds and concentrated solely by sun and wind. The salt flowers that form on the surface are skimmed off by hand and sun‑dried under glass before being coarsely granulated and packed in bulk.

Special features

Drying under glass transforms the moist fleur de sel into stable, crunchy sun flakes with a delicate structure. The flakes are easy to dose, remain snow‑white and are ideal as Biova table salt flakes and finishing flake salt.

Differences in origin and processing

Unlike industrially refined table salt, this flake salt is produced without additives and without chemical treatment. The combination of the Pakistani coastline, traditional handcraft and special drying gives the sun flakes their typical shape and mild flavour.

Taste & aroma

The flake salt offers a pleasantly mild, well‑balanced saltiness with a soft, rounded profile. Minerals such as calcium and magnesium support this harmonious character, while the salt itself is neutral in aroma and subtly enhances the natural flavour of ingredients.

Suggested uses

• Sprinkle as a finishing salt over meat, fish, vegetables or pasta just before serving.
• Refine salads, carpaccio, antipasti and grilled dishes at the table with sun flakes sea salt.
• Use as decorative salt flakes on butter, bread, baked potatoes, finger food or canapés.
