How do I use fleur de sel with vanilla?

Use as a finishing salt. Sprinkle lightly over seafood, vegetables, bread with butter, fruit and desserts just before serving to preserve aroma and flake texture.

No, the base is sea salt. The vanilla adds a gentle aromatic warmth that complements both savory dishes and desserts.

What are the ingredients and allergens?

Ingredients: fleur de sel (sea salt) 95%, Bourbon vanilla 5%. ALLERGENS: none.

Can I cook with it like regular salt?

You can, but long cooking diminishes the vanilla aroma and the delicate flake texture. For best results, add at the table or off-heat.

How should I store it?

Keep airtight in a cool, dry place away from steam and light. Reseal promptly to maintain crispness and aroma.

About fleur de sel

Fleur de sel forms as delicate crystals on the surface of salt pans under favorable sun and wind conditions and is traditionally skimmed by hand. Its fine flakes dissolve quickly on the palate, making it ideal for finishing.

Storage

Store airtight, cool and dry, away from steam and light. Reseal promptly to keep flakes crisp and aroma vibrant. Best within 24 months.
