    Sel des Pyrénées – Salt from the Pyrenees: La Flor de sal – Fleur de sel

    Salt mining in the Mountains of Navarre

    “Flor de sal” or also known from French as “fleur de sel” literally means: salt flower. It is a salt that is obtained when salty water evaporates. For this purpose, as with Salt from the Pyrenees, the water is piped from a brine spring into small basins. Due to natural influences such as the sun and wind, the water evaporates and a layer of salt remains on the pool floor.

    In order to preserve the valuable Flor de sal , however, shortly before the water has evaporated, the salt gardener skims off the top layer of salt crystals that are just forming by hand. The Salt Flower made from salt from the Pyrenees can only be harvested when there is no wind at dawn or dusk.

    Composition of Flor de sal, the salt from the Pyrenees

    Salt mining in Spain

    The Fleur de sel, obtained in the traditional way, consists largely of sodium chloride, like conventional sea salt. However, it can score points with other valuable minerals, which are present in far greater quantities in Flor de sal from the Pyrenees than in standard household sea salt. Here's the comparison:

    Uses of the salt flower from salt from the Pyrenees

    Due to its comparatively high mineral content, the Flor de sal from the Sel des Pyrénées has a more refined taste. It is therefore not common to use the salt flower for cooking. Instead, the Fleur de sel is sprinkled over the finished dish to season and taste.

    In addition to the final touch that the salt flower of salt from the Pyrenees gives to every dish, it is also pretty to look at in its crispy form. On the freshly fried steak or the delicious fish from the grill, the Flor de sal from the Sel des Pyrénées comes into its own, both visually and culinary-wise.
