Forget that old iodized stuff. American tables and kitchens have discovered gourmet sea salt in a big way.
REDMOND, Wash., March 1, 2004 — The biggest source for sea salt from all over the world is SaltWorks, Inc., where salt connoisseurs can buy such exotic products as Fleur de Sel® —the "caviar of salt"—and Le Trésor™ Grey Sea Salt, harvested from clay-lined salt ponds in the Guerande region of France.
Salt has long been just that: Salt. But as more chefs and home cooks have learned about the differences between varieties of sea salt and how to use each kind in cooking and serving food, "just salt" is increasingly passed over in favor of mineral-rich sea salt in all colors, flavors and sizes.
Originally started as a hobby for founder and president Mark Zoske, SaltWorks, Inc. quickly grew as more people learned about the imported salts. Established in 2001, the company has grown steadily ever since and now retails, wholesales and exports gourmet sea salts as well as bath and spa salts.
"There is a gourmet sea salt revolution happening now in the U.S.," said Zoske. "We happen to have the largest selection of gourmet sea salt in the world, but we're also a resource for those new to sea salt. People can come to our site and learn about the different kinds of sea salt and what these salts do for their food and their bodies.
While SaltWorks is known for its wide selection of highly sought-after varieties of gourmet sea salt, the company's pricing is equally popular among retail consumers and bulk buyers. Zoske buys from the source, striking deals with small French salt farms and Dead Sea salt producers in Israel alike.
"We really strive to be the ultimate sea salt resource on the Web," explained Zoske, himself a salt enthusiast. "For our customers, that means more information, bigger selection, lower prices and better customer service than they can find anywhere else. I'm happy to come to work every day and introduce others to the world of sea salt."
