Salt of the Earth

Salt of the earth

Salt is one of the oldest, most ubiquitous food seasonings. The taste of salt is one of the basic human tastes- and one of our favorites to say the least!

We absolutely love shaking some lovely pink Himalayan Salt atop mixed greens with some freshly ground pepper, chopped basil and extra virgin olive oil.  

Other small-batch gourmet salts are catching our eye (and palette)  as well such as Black Sea Salt which presents itself as the color of pepper but with a delightful mineral-salty taste.

Infused salt flavors are interesting as well when it comes to cooking. With salt flavors like citrus, vanilla, lavender and herb- you are certainly sure to wow your guests at the next dinner party!
