Another gourmet food salt is now available from SFBSC. We are very excited to be bringing you a new great salt that is favored by top chefs in France and all around the world!

Grey Sea Salt is formed as the sea water flows into the Guerande marshes during high tides.  The water is then directed to a vasiere, or a settling pond, where the water is evaporated leaving behind a naturally organic, crystallized salt.

The Grey Sea Salt gets it name from its natural coloring that occurs from the salt crystallizing on clay.  This contact with the clay provides the salt with its high mineral content that includes magnesium and many other trace minerals.

Grey Sea Salt has a much more delicate and richer taste than Mediterranean Sea Salt. It is 100% natural and unrefined and is certified organic.  We will be offering this salt in both fine and coarse grains in order to suite your gourmet salt needs.

Organic Grey Sea Salt will be joining our family of gourmet food salts which includes:

Sherpa Pink Himalayan Salt
Light Pink Himalayan Salt
Utah Red Salt
Ibiza European Salt

What is Sole?

Sole (pronounced so-lay) is a completely saturated solution of water and Himalayan Salt.

What are the benefits of Sole?

Drinking a solution of sole can:
-Re-mineralize the body of key elements that occur naturally in our bodies and that are essential to our over all well-being

-Balance the PH levels in our bodies
-Provide the body with electrolytes
-Promote healthy body function and balance

How do I make my own Sole?

1)      Take a glass jar (with a matching lid) and place about a 1 inch layer of Sherpa Pink Himalayan Salt (coarse grain works best) to the bottom of the jar.  Then add 2-3 inches of pure spring water to the jar, allowing the water to completely cover the salt.

2)      Allow the solution to sit overnight.

3)      The next morning, if all the salt has dissolved add a little more salt to the water.  Continue to add salt until the salt can no longer dissolve and the water is completely saturated with salt.  You should be able to visibly see the particles of salt in the jar still.

To use:

First thing every morning before breakfast, add 1 teaspoon of the sole to a full glass of pure spring water- then drink.

To store:

Keep lid on jar to keep sole from evaporating.  The sole will not spoil, so it will keep until it has been used up.
