Grey French Salt
Price range: $6.99 through $10.99
The classic salt of French cuisine, grey/gray salt is evaporated in clay ponds, which gives it a blueish hue and an almost wet texture. The flavor of the ocean permeates and gives this salt a briny flavor. This is our personal everyday (yet luxurious) salt.
Ingredient: Grey salt

How lovely, not just in flavor but also in texture and appearance! Less salty than standard sea salt, with a fairly complex flavor you wouldn’t expect from a sea salt.
This wonderful salt will be perfect to use in recipes that are more simple, without lots of spices and flavors. For my own personal use, it might be a bit light as a daily salt, and I certainly wouldn’t want to waste it in baking recipes, but as a specialty salt to be used throughout the week it will be perfect. I’m especially looking forward to using it in recipes that might need just a hint of saltiness, as it seems it would be hard to overdo it with this nice, light salt.

I don’t even know how to describe this product, because it’s salt, what more is there to say? But there is a depth of flavor in this salt that is… just indescribable and so delicious. I’m not even sure what to use it for because it feels like a special occasion thing but I’m endlessly excited to use it.

Love it! It tastes, well, salty, with a slight mineral tang

I’m in love with this French Grey Salt! I have used a tin and a couple of the 4 oz packages, so I have used it for awhile now! I like how easy it is to get just a “pinch” of salt from the tin and sprinkle it on. The textural feel in your fingers is an experience in itself and then once you taste it there is a slight coarseness that quickly dissipated followed by a mild salty taste with the depth of ocean undertones. Just perfect! I upturn Grey French Salt along with an olive oil from Greece and your That’s Amore as a dipping oil for my homemade artisan bread!
I also use your Grey French salt in soups, on Turkey burgers and a hint on chicken sausage! Just perfect! Thank you!

Excellent all round salt. I love dry brining ribeyes with it.
