Cornish Sea Salt Mineral Flakes | Cooking & Hydration | Hand-Harvested in Celtic Waters | 5.3 oz Resealable Tub (Pack of 1)

Comes on time and as described!My sister's husband got a job in London a few years back. When she come home their first year for Christmas she brought me back a small box of "Cornish Sea Salt Flakes". That's all it took. The taste is SO clean and good! I just adore it, it's all I use now.Sustainably hand harvested from protected open sea in Cornwall England, it is rich in magnesium and calcium, naturally lower in sodium, which, according to their website, says this means you can use 30% less salt and obtain a rich salty taste, so health wise, this is a great value.I have been hooked every since. According to the description, it's supposed to be used as a "finishing" salt, like to top off a cookie or on top of a caramel. Perhaps a fine poached fish, or sprinkled as part of the garnish on that perfect roast or veg to impress the boss when he comes for dinner. But for me, I use this every day in every recipe, as is, right in the pot or bake, and I love it.Someone, I am positive, will tell me that because it is a finishing salt that it is supposed to be "crunchy" (yes, I get it) either too salty or not salty enough to be used in a recipe and that 'flakes' melt faster on top of warm foods (yup, I know that also)-- ok, thank you, that is good to know!(I will still be using it my way when you go home --> and you can too! very few rules when no one is looking!)Enjoy the taste. That's it. If you like crunchy salt get the Cornish *Crystals* if you like a melting salt get the *Flakes*!!! Either way Cornish Sea Salt is the Yummiest!!!I can tell you I enjoy this product. I buy it in the large tub by subscription as the main source for the salt use in our home. I use it in all my cooking, baking, and as it's intended use -as a finishing salt, which I find excellent on top of sweets and savory dishes.The salt itself comes "flaked" meaning that instead of crystals which most of us are used to seeing in table salt or even larger rocks for fresh grinding or used whole, these are literal flakes. The flakes are very small, about the same size of rolled oat if you broke it in half or a forth, and some even smaller. Very fragile, so it can break easily with slight compression between your fingers, just a pinch will make it into a fine powder which is great over your eggs at breakfast or your green beans at lunch. Or if you're like a few people in my family -just leave them as is and enjoy a whole flake! It will easily melt over warm or hot food making your meal wonderful.Baking/Cooking: Just use your measuring spoon as usual, or at least I have, to scoop up the flakes as you would regular table salt for recipes. I have never had an issues with recipes. I bake bread weekly for myself, family and friends and no one has ever said anything other than "Are there any more loaves?" *I* presume the measurement comes out "equal" because with table salt, the salt is compact and 'solid' in the measuring spoon. Whereas with the flakes there is a lot of space/air between the flakes as they sit in the spoon, hence the using 30% less and still getting 100% taste and less sodium.I dispense my tub into a dedicated pots- for stovetop use, a baking jar, and a little pot for the table. When we have guests I have individual little salt sellers for each guest so that they can pinch their own fresh salt and pepper as they wish. You do You!Bottom Line: Sustainably Sourced. Hand harvested from Protected Open Sea Waters. Over 60 Natural Minerals including Magnesium and Calcium, and LOW Sodium (use 30% less salt to get 100% taste) TOTALLY WORTH IT!!!

It’s SALT. It makes food edible. It’s an important mineral for human survival. I bought it to sprinkle on focaccia.

Great item. It adds so much to baked my baked goods. Especially chocolate chip cookies.

Smokey salt flakes. Easy to use, tastes good.

I just wanna let you know that I got your product today and it’s marvelous. It’s actually shaved salt. I had ordered from another company on Amazon claiming the same thing that you did and it was just little crystals looking like regular salt only larger. Yours is shaved and it looks great. I can’t wait to make chocolate treats and drop some of it on the top. Thanks again for your wonderful product.

Nice salt. Good size I didn’t want a whole huge box. This size was perfect for me. I appreciate the container. The salt is very nice. I use for a wonderful Choc chip cookie recipe wonderful

Perfect for sprinkling on stearks for bbq. Nice salty smoked flavor.

The salt is processed in very thin, gray flakes. It's not granular or finely ground. I like the mild taste, and I use it more like a finishing salt. It's pricey, but fun and worth it to have a salt that's a little different.
