So, what is gros sel de mer?

Gros sel de mer, also known as coarse sea salt, is a type of salt that is harvested from evaporated seawater. It has a large, coarse grain size that makes it a popular choice for finishing dishes, as its texture and flavor are more pronounced than regular table salt. Due to its natural harvesting process, gros sel de mer retains trace minerals that are beneficial for the body, such as magnesium, calcium, and potassium. It is often used to enhance the flavor of meats, seafood, and vegetables, and is a staple in many Mediterranean and French cuisines.
