Sea Salt from Crete
Weight
Cretan sea salt, hand-harvested from the southern coast of Crete. Obtained through natural evaporation, without anti-caking agents or bleaching agents. Intended as a finishing salt: the final touch that completes a dish without overpowering it.
Taste: Mild, mineral-rich, fine texture.
Characteristics:
- 100% sea salt from the southern coast of Crete
- Hand-harvested, sun- and wind-dried
- No anti-caking agents, no bleaching agents, no additives
- Contains natural minerals: magnesium, potassium, calcium
- Coarse sea salt quality, harvested seasonally and in small batches
- As a natural sea salt, ideal for tomatoes, fish, salads, feta, and grilled vegetables
From natural salt pans on the south coast of Crete. Clean seawater, plenty of sunshine, low humidity and constant winds create ideal conditions for natural salt production.
The extraction is seasonal and in small quantities – through natural evaporation, without industrial processes.
Use: Ideal as a finishing salt – sprinkle over meat, fish, vegetables, salads, or fresh bread with olive oil after cooking. It adds precise flavor accents without being overpowering.
Storage: Store in a dry, airtight container. Sea salt has an unlimited shelf life. Moisture is not a sign of reduced quality, but a natural characteristic.
Free shipping on orders over €80.
Processing time: 3–4 working days
Shipping via DHL. Delivery details in your confirmation email.

What's behind your spice/herb from Crete-Manufacture?
South coast of Crete
On the south coast of Crete, sea salt is harvested through natural evaporation. Seawater is channeled into shallow basins and evaporates over weeks through sun and wind until crystals form. These are then scooped out by hand using wooden tools. The salt continues to dry in the sun – without washing, bleaching, or chemical treatment. No anti-caking agents, no additives. The process is time-consuming and yields small quantities.
Hand-scooped and dried
Salt is harvested seasonally, usually once a year. After being harvested, the salt dries in the sun. It retains its natural crystal structure and accompanying minerals from the seawater – including magnesium, potassium, and calcium. These influence its perception: the salt seems more balanced and less harsh than refined salt. The mineral content varies slightly from harvest to harvest.
As a finishing salt
Hand-harvested sea salt is designed to add precise accents at the end. The coarser crystals dissolve more slowly, creating targeted flavor highlights. Ideal for meat, fish, vegetables, salads, or fresh bread with olive oil. In Mediterranean cuisine, herbs carry the aroma, olive oil binds the flavors together, and salt adds the finishing touch. The more intense the herbs, the less salt is needed.
Wissenswertes
Meersalz aus natürlichen Felsbecken an der Südküste Kretas. Sonne und Wind konzentrieren das Meerwasser, bis Kristalle entstehen. Von Hand mit Holzwerkzeugen geschöpft, in kleinen Chargen, ohne Rieselhilfen, ohne zugesetztes Jod, ohne Bleichmittel. So bleiben Begleitmineralien wie Magnesium, Kalium und Calcium erhalten.
Grundsätzlich überall, wo Salz gebraucht wird. Seine Stärke spielt es als letzter Akzent auf dem Teller aus, kurz vor dem Servieren. Ideal über Tomaten, Fisch, Salaten, Feta oder gegrilltem Gemüse.
Praktisch unbegrenzt haltbar. Trocken und lichtgeschützt lagern, am besten in einem verschließbaren Gefäß aus Glas oder Keramik. Bei Feuchtigkeit können die Kristalle verklumpen, das beeinträchtigt die Qualität aber nicht.
