Halen Mon seasalt review :-)

Last year i was watching Countryfile on a sunday evening.... it was showing the production of Halen Mon seasalt made in the Isle of Anglesey North Wales. My husband Chris and I were intrigued.... we went onto google to see if we could buy some to try as they  did flavoured seasalts.... that sounded gorgeous for cooking with!

Above is the link to their website which has a lovely layout easy to navigate.
So, after perusing on google we discovered  that we could buy a gift set on amazon this one :

which contains... 5 different salts....
When we received these lovely little pots of joy (10g pots) we tried them all and wow they are divine they smell amazing! Oak, celery , spices, tahitian vanilla and plain. Out of them all the one that really wowed us was the "sea salt with celery seed" it smells divine and tastes gorgeous. I have to be honest i have never been a salt lover, in fact i didn't even use it to cook with or sprinkle on food! But this salt has changed my ways, its delicious sprinkled on a roast dinner or a little sprinkle in with boiled potatoes.
I would thoroughly reccomend this salt to anyone looking for adding extra flavour to cooking :-) I also like to support local /British companies

  1. Didn't even realise you could get flavoured salts; these sound worth a try though. I try to monitor our salt intake but there's nothing worse than bland food! Great to support Welsh companies too.

  2. Thanks Linda - they are definitely worth a try :-) Like you I monitor our salt intake but even a little sprinkle of this adds a lot of flavour :-)
