This is what is known as San Juan Islands most "alive" salt. As salt farmers, they admire all the crystals produced in their beds—their myriad shapes and sizes, their distinct individuality. But sometimes even they have been known to play favorites.
Most of their salt forms at a crystal size much too large for straight consumption, meaning it has to be ground and sifted to make it ready for the plate, but scattered within their beds are crystals that have formed with a perfect size and striking beauty. Delicate and sparkly. Flaky and light. Ready for use without any grinding or crushing. For years, they called this sea salt their North Star but could never find a way to reliably produce it. Now they have. This is their Reserve Salt—an inanimate object imbued with the farmer's life force, creating complex, delicate geometric crystals. These perfect crystals create a more "alive" experience in the mouth when tasting foods. It is the majesty of nature at work.
To enjoy its special magic, keep it simple—sprinkle on a home grown tomato, garnish a salmon filet, or pinch onto a flank steak.
Net wt. 5 oz. in a glass jar.
