Gourmet Blended Natural Grey Celtic Sea Salt

Cromptons Kitchen Gourmet Blended Natural Celtic Sea Salt range is a completely natural collection of hand blended Celtic Grey Sea Salt with herbs and spices, which is used to enhance the flavour of any beef, game, poultry, pork, fish and shellfish, fruit and vegetables. All of our blends are suitable for Coeliacs, Vegetarians and Vegans, as they contain no gluten or animal products.

We use no artificial preservatives or flavourings – Sea Salt is a natural preservative on its own. Every ingredient in Cromptons Kitchen Gourmet Blended Natural Grey Celtic Sea Salt can be found in any good herb and spice list.

The herb and spice combinations in these blends have unique effects on foods, and are the result of many years of experimentation and use within John’s professional kitchens. These recipes have been tried and tested with precise quantities of each of the various herbs and spices, which have been chosen with careful thought to their complimentary relationships to each other and the foods with which we suggest they be used. John, who is an Artisan Salt Blender and a member of the Craft Guild of Chefs, has always stood by the maxim that "cooking is a marriage of flavours", and his aim has been to reproduce this belief in his blends.

John chose to use this specific Celtic salt from the Guérande on the Atlantic Coast of Brittany in France, due to its superb qualities, culinary and otherwise:-

• It is a completely natural product, harvested by hand, in traditional fashion.
• It retains all of its natural minerals and trace elements, which are essential to health.
• It has large crystals, which deliver a very intense flavour. The taste of Sea Salt depends on where it was harvested. Just as wine is fermented grape juice, no two wines taste the same – this also applies to sea salt!
• It delivers a texture sensation of the crunch on the tongue.
• The wet crystals absorb the intensity of the flavours and aromas of the herb and spice mix, to a greater degree then when using a dry sea salt, so when used as finishing salts, you really only require a small quantity (much less than you would use of an ordinary table salt), therefore your sodium consumption will be less.
