The Spice Lab - Hudson Valley New York Premium Gourmet Salt - French Jar - No. 4290

Our Hudson Valley Salt Flake Salt is the only salt you need for cooking, baking or finishing your favorite dish! Most people think of the ocean when they think of salt, but salt deposits occur inland as well and that's the case in the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York. Hudson Valley Salt begins in salt veins 500 to 2,800 feet below the surface of a Lake. A brine is produced within the salt vein using lake water. The brine then undergoes an evaporation process creating the purest of all salts, a culinary flake salt. The flakes vary in size and structure which create a salt preferred by many chefs. Enjoy this natural treasure from one of the world's most beautiful places! This salt has a very clean and pure taste because of the fresh water it is evaporated from. It does not have a mineral content as sea salts do. This salt is not iodized. The flake texture of Hudson Valley Salt adheres well to food and is preferred by most chefs. The texture is also interesting in your mouth and melts easily unlike a coarse sea salt.
