GUERANDE

Tastes like the sea and winds of Celtic Brittany. An unrefined natural salt, enriched with elements, especially magnesium. Guerande is harvested by hand and celebrated in kitchens throughout the world. Excellent as a finishing and table salt. For hundreds of years, the inhabitants of the coastal town Guerande, have harvested salt by hand, using traditional Celtic methods. Today a cooperative of salt farmers continues to produce quality sea salt, which many argue is the ‘champagne’ of sea salts. A completely natural salt, it is light grey in colour, rich in minerals, enhances flavours spectacularly, and is a favourite in kitchens throughout the world. The grey colour comes from the rain lightly disturbing the clay at the bottom of the salt ponds. Pure, unprocessed – the salt is dried slowly and then ground into a fine powder or left coarse. A proud table salt and a favourite with Celts for thousands of years. Guerande enhances all recipes, particularly good with seafood, steaks, or anything else you can find in a French kitchen, (although we haven’t yet tried it with frogs legs or snails).
