Flower of salt - the finest and most delicate crystals harvested by hand from salt pans, just as they form on the surface. Unlike the beach evoking sel gris, these are dainty and pure and expensive. . . Curiosity comes at a price; in this case $A16 for a 125g calico bag.

Where are you buying these fancy salts from? I'm curious
The grey one by the scoop from Kakulis Bros, I think it was about $25 per kilo. The Fleur de sel from Simon Johnson in Subiaco, though I have seen it elsewhere, but not in calico!
Hi just saw your post...I run a new Australian business dedicated to salts from around the world. You are right....Fleur de Sel is a great salt which is hand harvested off the coast of France. It's a great universal sea salt to have at home...and its the salt pastry chefs use when making lovely desserts! Fleur de Sel and lots of other interesting salts are available online at www.thesalttbox.com.au. Price is better too.
