Fior di sale – Secrets of Sicily

Our Segreti di Sicilia line of preserves was born from the love for this land and its traditions, from the scents of our childhood, from our grandmother's secrets and from the rediscovery of an authentic and genuine past. Each product speaks of a specific territory, of a biodiversity that the world envies us. We choose each of them from our own crops or from our network, small and local productions and farmers who work the land with the same passion and respect as in the past. These genuine products are then transformed in our modern canning plant with the help of latest generation machinery. We use innovative cooking and preservation techniques that guarantee absolute respect for the original recipe and, at the same time, the preservation of all the organoleptic characteristics of the fresh product and its main nutritional aspects. The absence of preservatives and colorings allows you to taste a genuine product.

Sea salt is obtained from the evaporation of sea water. It is distinguished from rock salt (or rock salt) which is instead obtained in salt mines by extraction from the rock. In Sicily both sea salt and rock salt are produced.

Sea salt can be recognized not so much by its color (it is white like refined salt) but by its humidity. The cause of the humidity is the high percentage of magnesium which is maintained much longer in whole salt than in that processed by the food industry.

Sea salt is flavored with the addition of spices and dried herbs. This mixing allows you to add taste and flavor to dishes without having to add quantities of salt. We follow a family recipe that allows us to respect the right proportions between salt and aromas and we only use strictly Sicilian, zero kilometer herbs and spices.
