House Blend
Composition: Fleur de sel from Île de Ré and Urfa pepper (Turkey)
Discover this fleur de sel subtly enhanced by Urfa pepper, a Turkish pepper known for its smoky, chocolatey, and gently spicy notes. A refined blend of the saline purity of Île de Ré and the aromatic depth of this sun-dried black pepper.
Pairings:
Urfa pepper fleur de sel is used as a finishing touch, adding a final characteristic note. It enhances:
– grilled meats (lamb, beef, roasted poultry)
– roasted or grilled vegetables (eggplant, squash, sweet potato)
– eggs in all their forms
– Oriental or Mediterranean dishes
– and even… some dark chocolate desserts or salted caramel desserts
Like all fleur de sel, it should be added at the last moment, just before serving, to preserve its aromas and texture.
Health benefits:
Fleur de sel is naturally richer in trace elements (magnesium, calcium, potassium) and contains less sodium chloride than refined salt, making it a better alternative — always in moderation.
Urfa pepper, with its mild heat but rich in antioxidants, contains capsaicin, known for:
– its anti-inflammatory properties
– its digestive and stimulating action
– its tonic and warming effect
