FLAKY SEA SALT

Sustainability from the Westfjords of Iceland

4.9 · 511 reviews

Bright and mineral-forward, with a satisfying crunch and a subtle umami finish. This is the salt we started with in 2011 and the one chefs reach for last, right before the plate goes out.

Questions

How should I use this salt for cooking, seasoning and finishing?
Saltverk Flaky Sea Salt is versatile: you can use it for finishing, seasoning, cooking, brining, and curing. See each product page for details on how to best use each salt.
What's the yield of one jar? How long will it last me?
One 3.17oz jar will last between 1-2 months depending on usage. Flakes are lighter and more airy than table salt, so you can use less volume.
Are your salts iodized and do they contain additives?
No. Our salts are not iodized and contain no anti-caking agents or additives. Just pure sea salt, plus natural botanicals in the flavored varieties.
How should I store my Saltverk salt?
Store it in a dry airtight container. Keep away from steam.
Is Saltverk salt safe in terms of heavy metals and contaminants?
Yes. Saltverk salts are tested by accredited third-party labs. Our geothermal process and the pristine Icelandic location yield extremely low levels, well under safety thresholds. See our lab reports.
