Blackthorn Scottish Sea Salt Flakes 1.4kg

Made with wind, sea and thorns on the West Coast of Scotland, Blackthorn Salt is the ultimate for a professional or well worked kitchen. The attractive 1.4kg Blackthorn tub is perfect for keeping out in the prep area or near the cooker: the salt is protected and the tub is fully able to withstand a good wipe down. It has been designed to keep the salt dry, safe and is also fully recyclable.
Scottish West Coast Seawater is their single ingredient at Blackthorn, every flake is the product of their sustainable Thorn Tower method. Slowly grown and harvested by hand, these natural crystals enhance flavours like no other. The distinctive mineral array has been carefully retained giving characteristics which complement the palate incredibly well. With a nod to each of the 5 basic tastes, each crystal has a completeness that is rarely found: in Blackthorn there is magnesium and potassium which provide bitter and sour notes, calcium for the sweetness, sodium chloride for the salty and even tannins from the Blackthorn branches for that earthy savoury element, giving a hint of umami and an incredibly long-lasting taste sensation.
Blackthorn is sometimes thought of as a 'finishing salt' to be applied at the table, but  customers (and experts in their field) report that Blackthorn will that will give a beautiful, lasting, moreish and clarity to flavours when used in sauces, baking, roasting, brining/ dry-brining, curing, salting, fermenting.
