Choose by cooking style

Cook

If salt is incorporated during the recipe, choose Fine Salt. It is the most versatile and the easiest to substitute for your usual salt.

Finish

If salt is added at the end, Flor de Sal and Flaked Salt provide presence, texture, and a more gourmet touch.

To dress

If you're looking for even distribution in salads, tomatoes, vinaigrettes or vegetables, Liquid Salt is the most convenient format.

To give as a gift

For a gift or first-time purchase, a pack better communicates the variety of textures and reduces the fear of making a mistake.
