Celtic Table Salt:
Hand-harvested, stoneground, unrefined sea salt from the protected Isle of Noirmoutier, Brittany, France. Ancient, Celtic, salt farm methods are used with no chemical additives at all.. Smooth, mellow taste and a wealth of trace minerals.
Isle of Noirmoutier sea salt is world-famous. Two-thirds of the Bay of Biscay Island is tidal marsh. A hot, sunny climate and constant dry wind evaporate the water from man-made ponds. The Isle is designated a national nature preserve and is environmentally protected. Noirmoutier means “black monastery” from the black-robed monks who lived there in the Middle Ages. The Celtic salt farm, with its hand-harvest methods (the same methods used today), created demand for this sea salt that has remained strong.
Atlantic water flows into rectangular, man-made, hard, sunbaked clay pools. Two days of sun and wind result in large salt crystals called sel gros, which are light gray from the clay. These are harvested by a saunier or salt farmer with a long rake. The saunier draws crystals to one side of the pool. Every two days, salt is wood-rake collected and added to a pile that becomes several feet high as the harvest proceeds. This coarse salt is dried and medium-fine stone-ground. No further processes, washing, or additives are involved. It is never blended. The traditional Celtic process captures a wealth of trace elements and produces one of the world’s most delicious sea salts.
Noirmoutier islanders take pride in the purity and taste of their salt. The craft has been handed down through thousands of years. The Isle’s unique qualities produce exquisite salt. Our Celtic Salt is certified by L'Association de Controle Tiers Ouest Atlantique (ACTOA), 'Selection du Saunier.' This organization certifies that the source is pure, unpolluted Noirmoutier where the environment is suitable for organic agriculture and its strict requirements for sea salt.
Imitation sea salts dominate the marketplace in the U.S. They are not real sea salt, because they are mined. Food processors use them because they can, and they are cheap. There is no regulation in the U.S. market. This type of fraud is not allowed in the E.U.
The difference is the taste, nutrients, and physiological effects. Eden Sea Salt is lower in sodium and high in calcium and trace minerals. It is sea salt in its natural state with trace elements as found in the ocean. Iodine is not stripped out and then 'fortified' back in. Packed in glass protects its taste and prevents moisture absorption.
An exceptional value, French Celtic Sea Salt nourishes and imparts an extenuatingly smooth taste. It makes dishes prepared with it taste noticeably better. Ideal as table salt, for cooking, and baking. In saltshakers, add about ten percent rice to absorb moisture and make it shake out well.
This salt like all salt, cannot be labeled "organic" because it is a mineral, not an agricultural product.
Pink Himalayan Table Salt:
Himalayan Salt is a full-flavored, all-natural mineral salt harvested from ancient sea salt deposits found in the Punjab Salt Range of northern Pakistan, geologically part of the Himalayan foothills. The famous range of trace minerals found in this salt, such as iron, magnesium, potassium & calcium, results in its beautiful range of colors, from varying shades of pink to red.
