Fleur de Sel

A French sea salt harvested from the waters on salt ponds situated along the coastal waters of France, which when translated means the "flower of salt", a name derived from crystals that blossom from evaporated water. Thin and having an appearance similar to snowflakes, the crystals of Fleur de Sel are removed from the surface of the still water ponds adjacent to the sea, unlike the French sea salt harvested in the same area referred to as Sel Gris.
