Here there are systems that date back to 1200 and demonstrate how ancient salt production is in this area. The area is also very fascinating in terms of landscape due to the presence of ancient windmills.

For all uses in cooking and to flavor and embellish meats and focaccias.

Ingredients
Coarse grain sea salt from Sicily.

Our coarse-grained sea salt comes from the historic salt pans of Trapani. We take care of the scrupulous selection and packaging. We only choose salt from small producers who follow safe and sustainable production processes, according to the centuries-old tradition of the ancient Sicilian salt workers. In the areas of Trapani, on the coast towards Marsala, through a system of locks, canals and tanks, the evaporation of sea water allows the collection of salt crystals which are then cleaned and stored.

Whole sea salt is rich in magnesium, potassium and iodine, important elements for the correct functioning of the thyroid. Unlike refined salt, whole salt retains most of the substances coming from sea water. Not only magnesium, potassium and iodine but also sulphates, calcium, iron, manganese, zinc and other substances useful for the prevention of many diseases.

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.
