What goes with Sea Salt?
Food-grade, unflavoured sea salt is predominantly sodium chloride. This profile uses fine, dry crystals measured by mass, with coarse crystals named explicitly when their shape matters. The fine form dissolves readily in moist food and gives no useful aroma of its own. Its culinary identity rests on salinity, moisture movement and control of texture rather than an assumed marine perfume.

Pairing principles
What pairs well with Sea Salt?
Choose the operation before choosing the crystal size: fine salt for even distribution, a measured brine for immersion, and coarse salt for a removable baking shell. Consider the water available to dissolve it and the salt already present in cheese or condiments. In concentrated sauces and dried foods, reserve part of the seasoning until moisture loss is complete.
