A perfectly seasoned cookbook

Salt is one of the most important ingredients in the kitchen. And being able to season properly is what separates a good cook from an excellent one. It's not just the amount of salt that matters, but also the timing of salting. For example, at the beginning of the preparation to get the full potential out of sun-ripened tomatoes; to coat meat just before cooking so that a salty crust forms and the meat remains juicy; or at the end, over a chocolate tart so that it tastes even more intense. Sea salt combines the most important methods of salting - including brining, pickling, fermenting and curing - to breathe new life and fresh inspiration into everyday dishes. Meat, fish, vegetables and sweets are all served here. With the perfect pinch of salt, of course! Classic recipes served with an aromatic twist, recipes for every occasion, from dinner parties to cozy family meals. Perfect seasoning for intense flavors - both savory and sweet.
