Fine salt
The fine salt from Artisans du Sel is obtained naturally by sieving without grinding for a natural finesse.
Thanks to a dehumidification chamber, the fine salt from Artisans du Sel is dried gently and without the use of energy-intensive systems.
It retains all its properties and in particular its high content of trace elements, a natural balance.
Characteristics of Natural Fine Salt
Texture and size : Its crystals are finer <3mm and lighter than those of coarse salt, without being as delicate as fleur de sel. This natural granulometry allows precise dosage and rapid dissolution in food.
Color : Slightly gray in color, like all Guérande salts, it retains its natural color from marsh clay.
Flavor : Its taste is sweet and slightly iodized, bringing a subtle complexity to dishes without attacking the palate.
Uses in the Kitchen
This fine salt is versatile and adapts to all culinary needs:
Everyday Seasoning : Ideal for seasoning dishes directly at the table or while cooking. It dissolves quickly, making it perfect for sauces, dressings, soups and stews.
Marinades and brines : Thanks to its natural finesse, it dissolves quickly and allows for even distribution in marinades, thus guaranteeing well-seasoned preparations.
Pastry and bakery : Its fine texture makes it perfect for doughs and other preparations, without visible crystals.
Conservation and Presentation
Like all sea salt, it is best to store fine Guérande salt in an airtight container and away from moisture, to preserve its natural finesse. Artisans often offer it in jars or resealable bags for practical use and optimal conservation.
