SALTVERK smoked sea salt flakes 'Birch Smoked Salt', salt, 125gSea Salt Flakes smokedIn the 18th century the Danish King Christian VII was. On the Reykjanes peninsula in the West Fjords of Iceland a salt production facility building.After several decades, the production was stopped and ended the salt production in Iceland.But the tradition was not lost forever: Since 2011 operates Björn Steinar Jónsson and his father in the same place a new, climate-neutral Saline - the 'Saltverk'.His soft spot for the traditional Icelandic cuisine as well as sustainable and handicraft products was the guideline for the project.Together, father and son developed a production plant, leaving the old profession of salt maker revive.The icy waters of the North Atlantic seeps slowly into the fjords and filters so naturally.From now on, the technology is required: First, the seawater is pumped into large heated pool.There ensure heating pipes, filled with 90 ° C hot thermal water from the 50 meters remote source, for the first evaporation. Once the brine has reached the correct salt content of about 20%, it is forwarded to the basin of the Siedehauses.There, the evaporation process is continued until salt flakes form that will later be 'harvested' by hand.After the salt is dried, it is also filled in by hand and packaged.The result is a unique, crispy sea salt with the taste of the harsh north, which is particularly rich in essential minerals.In addition, there are three salts with the aroma of licorice, lava or birch wood smoke.The purity and quality has already convinced many renowned chefs from the Nordic kitchen.Finally, it is the first artisanal salt using 100% green energy geothermal hot geysers created.Since the salt is also drawn by hand, the CO2 emission is zero.Elmfield: sea salt birch, smokedContents: 125g
