Food - Spices - Cookiing

Because of my long time connection with The BBQ Forum I have been fortunate enough to have accumulated a lot of information about cooking, spices and food in general.  I plan to share with you some of the great nuggets of good information.

Fleur de sel

Truly a work of art suitable for framing.  Fleur De Sel is a great finishing sea salt from France.  There are three really good Fleur De Sel's produced from three different areas, pictured is one of them.  This is the one I use, Fleur De Sel De Camargue.  I don't think food tastes good without salt on it.  This is especially meats, potatoes and fish.  So even though I am careful about my salt consumption I have to have a little bit of salt on my food.

That is one of the good things about a salt like this, it only takes a little bit to add incredible flavors to your food.  This is not a cooking salt is should be applied just before serving.  You will find this salt dissolves faster than regular salt.  

If I was flat broke I would still try to have some of this salt so I could eat like a king and have hope for the future.  So do yourself a favor and buy some.  Use it sparingly and you'll be very happy you did this.
