Halen Mon Oak Smoked Sea Salt, 100g

Description

Halen Môn oak smoked sea salt has smoky, umami notes - the perfect seasoning for creamy mashed potato, risottos, or as a salty garnish for desserts.

Originally smoked from the offcuts of Welsh kissing gates, this salt is now smoked over oak chippings, giving the flakes a distinctive, rich flavour. Try pairing with boiled Jersey Royal potatoes, stir through softly scrambled eggs, or sprinkle over dark chocolate ganache tarts.

About Halen Môn

Husband and wife David and Alison Lea-Wilson started Halen Môn in 1997 after over a decade spent running a wholesale fish and game business. Halen Môn began in the family kitchen, when a saucepan of seawater was left to boil. When they noticed salt crystals forming, they knew they were onto something special.

Based in Anglesey, they use pure charcoal-filtered seawater drawn from the Menai Strait, naturally filtered through a mussel bed and sandtank. The sea salt crystals form in shallow crystallisation tanks, and once formed, are harvested by hand. 

The salt is used in Michelin-starred restaurants including The Fat Duck and was served at the London 2012 Olympics. 

Ingredients: Halen Môn Pure Sea Salt PDO, smoke from oak chippings.
