Sale Di Cervia


Sale Di Cervia
Open the pure cotton bag and it's like being handed a bag of diamonds. Bright and pure with a clean flavor, Cervia’s Medium Coarse Sea Salt is harvested by hand, dried under the Italian summer sun and has absolutely no additives. This sea salt is perfect for the grinder or for cooking a ragu.

Salfiore di Romagna
The first sea salt of the season’s harvest and the highest grade. Use as a finishing salt for salads or steamed vegetables at the end of cooking. This sea salt will add texture, excitement and crunch to any dish. No additives or bitterness. Called the “il sale dei Papi” or “the salt of the popes,” in today’s terms you might say it was “the official salt of the papal table.”

Riserva Camillione
Recognized by Slow Food Presidia in 2004 as an extra-ordinary product, this coarse sea salt has been gathered on the same Camillone salt flats since Roman times. Tradition dictates that it be harvested daily in very, very small quantities. It is a more humid sea salt and when used for salt-roasting fish or meats, the end result is very un-salty, moist and flavorful.
