Sea Salt Flakes

Comes on time and as described! My sister's husband got a job in London a few years back. When she come home their first year for Christmas she brought me back a small box of "Cornish Sea Salt Flakes". That's all it took. The taste is SO clean and good! I just adore it, it's all I use now. Sustainably hand harvested from protected open sea in Cornwall England, it is rich in magnesium and calcium, naturally lower in sodium, which, according to their website, says this means you can use 30% less salt and obtain a rich salty taste, so health wise, this is a great value. I have been hooked every since. According to the description, it's supposed to be used as a "finishing" salt, like to top off a cookie or on top of a caramel. Perhaps a fine poached fish, or sprinkled as part of the garnish on that perfect roast or veg to impress the boss when he comes for dinner. But for me, I use this every day in every recipe, as is, right in the pot or bake, and I love it. Someone, I am positive, will tell me that because it is a finishing salt that it is supposed to be "crunchy" (yes, I get it) either too salty or not salty enough to be used in a recipe and that 'flakes' melt faster on top of warm foods (yup, I know that also)-- ok, thank you, that is good to know! (I will still be using it my way when you go home --> and you can too! very few rules when no one is looking!) Enjoy the taste. That's it. If you like crunchy salt get the Cornish *Crystals* if you like a melting salt get the *Flakes*!!! Either way Cornish Sea Salt is the Yummiest!!! I can tell you I enjoy this product. I buy it in the large tub by subscription as the main source for the salt use in our home. I use it in all my cooking, baking, and as it's intended use -as a finishing salt, which I find excellent on top of sweets and savory dishes. The salt itself comes "flaked" meaning that instead of crystals which most of us are used to seeing in table salt or even larger rocks for fresh grinding or used whole, these are literal flakes. The flakes are very small, about the same size of rolled oat if you broke it in half or a forth, and some even smaller. Very fragile, so it can break easily with slight compression between your fingers, just a pinch will make it into a fine powder which is great over your eggs at breakfast or your green beans at lunch. Or if you're like a few people in my family -just leave them as is and enjoy a whole flake! It will easily melt over warm or hot food making your meal wonderful. Baking/Cooking: Just use your measuring spoon as usual, or at least I have, to scoop up the flakes as you would regular table salt for recipes. I have never had an issues with recipes. I bake bread weekly for myself, family and friends and no one has ever said anything other than "Are there any more loaves?" *I* presume the measurement comes out "equal" because with table salt, the salt is compact and 'solid' in the measuring spoon. Whereas with the flakes there is a lot of space/air between the flakes as they sit in the spoon, hence the using 30% less and still getting 100% taste and less sodium. I dispense my tub into a dedicated pots- for stovetop use, a baking jar, and a little pot for the table. When we have guests I have individual little salt sellers for each guest so that they can pinch their own fresh salt and pepper as they wish. You do You! Bottom Line: Sustainably Sourced. Hand harvested from Protected Open Sea Waters. Over 60 Natural Minerals including Magnesium and Calcium, and LOW Sodium (use 30% less salt to get 100% taste) TOTALLY WORTH IT!!!

I never knew salt could transform a dish until I tried this smoked sea salt. The smoky aroma hits you as soon as you open the jar—natural, not overpowering, and instantly mouthwatering. It adds a deep, savory complexity to meats, roasted vegetables, eggs, and even chocolate desserts. The salt crystals are the perfect size—coarse enough for finishing, but not so large that they overwhelm. A little goes a long way, making this a worthwhile pantry upgrade. Whether you're grilling, baking, or just topping avocado toast, this smoked sea salt brings a gourmet touch with minimal effort. Highly recommended for food lovers and curious cooks alike.

Smoky and delicious nice finishing salt

I thought I would try this salt after discovering one of my favorite TV chef personalities said this was the "magic ingredient" that he used on finishing steaks and burgers. I was intrigued because this chef is very well known and quite famous. So, I tried it and I'm so glad I did! It's a wonderful smoky flake salt - easy to use (although I will be transferring it to a salt cellar to protect it and for ease of use.) This smoky flake salt is unbelievably delicious on steaks, burgers, and pork. I recently made BBQ'd spareribs adding this smoky salt in my rub. My guests said they never tasted ribs that good! Not a rib left of the 2 racks I cooked! I'm so glad to have discovered this amazing salt - I can't wait to try it in stews, on veggies, and any recipe I want to add a smoky touch to. A little goes a long way - I'll be buying again to replenish!

If you are someone that loves to Cook and you love the taste of a char grill, Is this salt is spectacular. I normally can't stand anything with an artificial smoke flavor. But this salt brings the taste of a wood-fired grill to my propane grill. Like any other smoked seasoning a little goes a long way. I have used it in a marinade for sous vide And sprinkled on top of freshly grilled meats it is spectacular and the smell the aroma is intoxicating. It is definitely better than any other smoked flavor I've ever had.

A very nice change to a finish sea salt. Adds a unique flavor to the dish.

Love the texture and and taste!

very good product. i use it a lot
