So, what is sel gris marin?

Sel gris marin, also known as French grey sea salt, is a type of coarse sea salt that is harvested by hand from salt marshes along the French coastline. It has a distinctive grey color due to its mineral content, which includes trace elements such as magnesium, calcium, and potassium. Sel gris marin has a moist texture and a briny, slightly earthy flavor that makes it a popular ingredient in gourmet cooking. It is often used as a finishing salt, sprinkled over dishes just before serving to add a crunchy texture and enhance the natural flavors of the food. This artisanal salt is a favorite among chefs and food enthusiasts alike for its unique taste and high-quality.
