Fine Ground Celtic Salt® is the same type of salt as our coarser Light Grey variety, dried at a low temperature then finely ground. Fine Ground Celtic Sea Salt® has no additives and is not processed in any way beyond drying and grinding. With a flavor subtler than that of the coarser variety, it is an all-purpose shaker salt convenient for use at the table or in baking. Fine ground is the perfect salt for the novice health buff, and is a great way to introduce friends and family to Celtic Sea Salt®.
The story of Celtic Sea Salt® began thousands of years ago, when the Celts discovered a way to harvest salt from the ocean using the sun, the wind, and shallow clay ponds. Pristine ocean channels spiral water into the concentrating ponds. The live flowing mixture is carefully stirred by the salt farmer, and dazzling crystals form and are gathered by hand. The ionizing action of the clay, combined with the artisan's skillful method, passed down through generations, enlivens the unique, bioavailable array of trace elements that exist in a perfectly balanced matrix.
Then as now, Celtic Sea Salt® is unparalleled in the world. Less than 1% of the world's salt harvest has the artisinal quality of Celtic Sea Salt®. Pure, moist, biologically active, and free from any chemicals or additives, Celtic Sea Salt® is salt the way it is meant to be. We travel throughout the great salt-producing regions, hand-selecting only the best quality to become Celtic Sea Salt®.
Each harvest is carefully inspected to ensure that the salt meets our uncompromising standards of harvesting, mineral content, taste, texture, smell, color, and crystal integrity. Only then can it bare the name of Celtic Sea Salt®.
Kosher:
Celtic Sea Salt® is under kosher supervision. We have permission to display a Hedsher symbol on the salt labels. This permission is obtained through inspection by a Rabbi, who makes unannounced visits. The Rabbi inspects the facility, with emphasis on the salt room procedures, purchasing documents and cleaning products used. The guidelines for packaging the salt are posted inside and just outside the salt room. Our salt is considered Parve (pronounced par-v), meaning it is neither a meat or a dairy food, but a neutral one. Our salt is also acceptable for use during Passover, a designation not found on many mainstream products.
