Product Description

Size: Small

Waters from a warm mountain spring 10,000 in the Peruvian Andes, seeps into terraced salt ponds where it has been hand-harvested for over 2,000 years. The faintly pink crystals have a high moisture content and lower mineral content, making them an exciting alternative to traditional French salts such as sel gris.
The finishing salt's flavors are complex and mild, rounded and semi-sweet, and dissolve with an understated but resilient crunch on food. Structure, subtle flavor, and rich cultural associations provide a stunning context for a variety of foods, perhaps tracing history, from pre-Inca dishes of tamales, potato, huanaco deer, and seafoods ranging from perch in a slipper of banana leaf to an astringent scallop ceviche. From there it assumes its place in criollo recipes such as lomo saltado and papas a la huancaena based on the beef, hen, and rabbit introduced with the influx of Spaniards, Italians, French, Germans, Chinese, and Japanese.
The pearl-pink crystals of Peru Mountain Spring radiate the beauty of a child?s quick laugh rippling from a hut on the banks of the Urubamba river.
