Salt is a basic necessity for life. We believe that Halen Môn is a basic necessity in any food lover’s life. Our unique mix of family, environment, craft and technology has proven to be highly successful on every level from production to pleasure.
Salts of the World
Most salts have their niche in different dishes, cuisines or cultures but we are pleased that Halen Môn is increasingly making its way onto the menus of top restaurants throughout the world. Our flavoured sea salts- organic spiced, oak smoked, Taha’a vanilla and organic celery Halen Môn – are perfect for adding a little zest and zing to every day dishes.
Our sea salt is different
Of course it contains salt although it comes from the living sea rather than a long buried deposit that has been mined in Cheshire. But our sea water also contains other things: mostly trace elements reputedly over 75 elements including gold, silver, zinc, magnesium, calcium, and iodine.
We know that the body needs tiny amounts of these elements and notice that many people take health food supplements to make sure they get them.
Those elements are both essential to health and they impart flavour - in wine terms it has a terroir - sea salt tastes different from different seas. All wine is fermented grape juice but no two wines taste the same and this also applies to sea salt!
A quote from Delia Smith
“a fat, chunky chip wrapped in a rocket leaf, then dipped first in mayonnaise then in sea salt, is a quite wickedly brilliant combination”
