Grey Salt is a "moist" unrefined sea salt usually found on the coastal areas of France. Its light grey, almost light purple color comes from the clay found in the salt flats. The salt is collected by hand using traditional Celtic methods. Grey Salt has gained great fame in the mainstream culinary world in the last few years and is considered by many to be the best quality salt available. Grey salt comes in coarse, stone ground fine, and extra fine grain options. This option is coarse grain. Coarse sea salt has versatile uses, from adding flavor to soups, stews, chilis, salads, and more, to creating salt crusts on meat or fish dishes.
