Noirmoutier Salt Origin: France Weight: 60g / 2.11oz €116.67/kg Ingredients: Noirmoutier Salt Description: The harvesting of this salt began more than 1300 years ago according to some writings from the 7th century by monks from the region. The salt marshes were built by these same monks, and the harvested salt, which was very precious, was used to preserve food but also served as taxes. In the Middle Ages, many ships chartered from Northern Europe came to stock up in Noirmoutier. The harvesting method has never changed, and today's salt workers continue and pass on this ancestral know-how. This salt is characterized by its crunchy texture and its fairly pronounced iodized side. Usage tips: You can use it as coarse salt, whether in cooking or as a finishing touch on a salad, raw vegetables, or red meat. *It is a moist salt that works with a WET salt mill.
