Lemon and Salt

Description

These large, bright yellow grains owe their zesty, slightly sweet flavor to orange and lemon peel, as well as a hint of turmeric.

Uses

Our lemon salt will not fail to please with fish and seafood dishes, such as a delicate clam ceviche or a salmon gravlax. It will add a lovely flavour to pan-fried mushrooms or to a simple green salad.

Distinctives attributes

Our salt is sourced from the Trapani and Paceco nature reserve in Sicily, an area comprising nearly 1,000 hectares, home to salt flats for many centuries. Today, the salt is still harvested partly by hand, following an ancient method, and crushed using wind energy, thanks to the many windmills still standing.

Artisan

The De Laurentiis family owns an artisanal business in the Abruzzo mountain region. For two generations, it has been drawing on traditional ingredients and know-how to offer products with an authentically Italian taste. The family grows organic tomatoes, saffron and other seasonings on its own plots of land, and turns them into sauces and condiments thanks to a veritable regiment of cooks who busily tend the ovens.
