FIOR DI SALE SEA SALT

The fior di sale sea salt is considered to be a precious commodity for our tables. Its light mixture and its delicate taste make it unique and indispensable.
It is harvested manually by salt experts for just one month a year, so the quantities are very small.
The fior di sale crystallizes through the evaporation of the mother water inside the salt tanks.
Unlike salt, it forms on the surface of the water and not on the bottom. Its natural composition makes it very light and allows it to float.

The Riserva del Mare fior di sale is traditionally collected by salt workers, using special nets in the early hours of the morning in the absence of wind, to prevent it from falling to the bottom of the tank.

It is only 3 millimetres thick. Therefore, during the harvest held in July, the production is very limited.
It is naturally dried to keep its properties unaltered, such as: iodine, magnesium and other trace elements essential for the human body.

It does not contain any additives and does not undergo any chemical treatment.
The fior di sale is considered to be a very rare precious commodity, it has a delicate flavour that does not leave a bitter aftertaste, and therefore it is mainly used in gourmet kitchens.

It is also recommended for the preparation of desserts.
