Saline Culcasi
Saline Culcasi has been in business for 100 years, producing and marketing the artisanal sea salt of Trapani.
The place of extraction is magical; it is carried out in one of the most evocative places in Sicily. The salt pans are the natural habitat par excellence of the magnificent pink flamingos and numerous other species of aquatic birds; creating an oasis of biodiversity.
Salt pans and small ancient windmills blend into the backdrop of sea and sky.
A picturesque place where an artisanal sea salt registered as a Slow Food Presidium is produced.
How to use Fior di Sale
It can be used in any recipe instead of traditional salt, it will give your dishes a stronger taste than traditional salt, the advice is to use it sparingly as it tends to be more salty despite its sweetness.
