Fleur de sel only forms in certain climates. Water from the sea flows into salt pans, where it then evaporates. What remains is the much sought-after fleur de sel. It is harvested by hand and sold virtually untreated. Fleur de sel is a coarse salt and is used to enhance all kinds of dishes – from canapés to desserts.
