9,90 

Premium Guérande sea salt from France, traditionally harvested from Atlantic salt marshes. Its naturally moist texture, soft crunch, greyish colour, and delicate mineral notes make it perfect as a finishing salt for grilled meats, vegetables, seafood, sauces, salads, caramel, and chocolate desserts.

Description

Guérande Sea Salt is a classic French finishing salt from the historic salt marshes of Guérande, where sea salt has been produced for centuries. Harvested by hand and dried naturally through solar evaporation, this Atlantic sea salt is valued for its natural grey tone, moist texture, gentle crunch, and refined mineral flavour.

Unlike ordinary table salt, Guérande salt is best used at the end of cooking, where its texture and flavour can shine. Sprinkle it over grilled meat, roasted vegetables, carpaccio, fish, seafood, salads, sauces, focaccia, or even sweet recipes such as salted caramel and chocolate desserts. Its balanced salinity makes it a versatile kitchen essential for everyday cooking and premium finishing.

Born in Paris from a passion for gastronomy and a deep knowledge of spices, the company focuses on discovering distinctive varieties with character, provenance and outstanding aromatic qualities. Its range extends far beyond everyday black pepper, introducing food lovers to remarkable peppers, berries and spices from different culinary regions of the world.

Exceptional peppers and spices from around the world

One of the defining qualities of Compagnie Française des Poivres et Epices is its approach to sourcing. The company works directly with plantations and producers and places particular importance on traceability, harvest quality and careful selection.

Peppercorns are hand-picked and sorted, while products are selected from recent harvests rather than undergoing prolonged storage or being mixed with ingredients from different origins. This approach helps preserve the distinctive aromas and flavours associated with individual varieties and terroirs.

The collection includes everything from classic and rare peppers to chilli peppers, Ceylon cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, aromatic herbs, spice blends, curries and speciality salts.

Quality, traceability and responsible sourcing

Compagnie Française des Poivres et Epices combines its focus on flavour with an environmentally conscious approach. The company uses reusable packaging and states that the majority of its peppers and spices are certified organic by organisations including Ecocert. It also maintains direct relationships with producers and plantations across more than 30 countries.

For cooks who enjoy exploring ingredients beyond ordinary supermarket spices, the brand offers an opportunity to discover how the origin, variety and harvest of pepper and spices can influence their aroma and flavour.
