This is a fine sea salt intended for cooking by weight rather than by volume. It is the salt used where accuracy matters, such as baking, bread making, pickling, fermenting, and dairy work.
Because the crystals are fine and consistent, the salt dissolves easily and distributes evenly through doughs, brines, and mixtures. This makes it reliable for recipes where salt is measured in grams rather than teaspoons.

About the Salt
This fine sea salt is produced in Australia by Olsson’s using a solar evaporation process. After harvesting, the salt is refined and sieved to achieve a fine, consistent crystal size.
The smaller particle size means there is less air space between crystals. When measured by volume, this salt will weigh more than a coarse salt. For that reason, it is best used in recipes that specify salt by weight rather than spoon measure.
The salt is high purity sodium chloride with low moisture content and a clean, neutral flavour that supports rather than dominates food.

FAQs
Why is fine salt recommended for baking and fermenting?
The fine crystal size dissolves quickly and distributes evenly, which is important for consistent results in baking, brines, and ferments.
Can I substitute this for coarse or flake salt?
Yes, but quantities should be adjusted. Fine salt is denser than coarse salt, so a teaspoon of fine salt contains more salt by weight.
Is anything added to this salt?
No. This is plain sea salt with no additives or anti-caking agents.
Where is it made?
The salt is produced in South Australia from natural seawater using solar evaporation.
