Harvested by hand from the ancient salt ponds of Guérande, France — a Celtic region with centuries of salt-making tradition — our French Grey Sea Salt (Sel Gris) is one of the world's most prized culinary salts. Using wooden rakes and time-honored methods unchanged for hundreds of years, salt farmers coax mineral-rich crystals from clay-lined beds, giving this salt its distinctive earthy grey color and full, complex flavor.
Whether you're seasoning a weeknight dinner or finishing a chef-worthy dish, French Grey Sea Salt delivers a briny depth that ordinary table salt simply can't match. It's a staple in professional kitchens across France and around the world — and now in yours.
