Salt is such a common food product that it is difficult to imagine selling it at a high price.
However, this is true for the regular product.
Even sea or pink salt is much more expensive, as they are mined in a special way.
What other types of salt can be considered expensive and unusual?
Fume of Sel
The cost of a "modest" pack of salt (less than 150 grams) is more than 20 dollars. It is noteworthy that a special type of white wine is used in the preparation of salt.
As a result, such salt will make any dish more refined and sophisticated. Such unusual salt is produced by French specialists.
Merlot
This is another "wine" salt, but we are talking about using a different type of drink. Red wine is used in the production of a special salt.
A small package of salt (just over 100 grams) costs more than $17.
However, it is this type of salt that has become a favorite of many famous chefs, who actively use the product when preparing haute cuisine dishes.
