The set includes three spice blends and recipes for inspiration.
5) Classic & Spicy Salt Blend Duo
The salt blend duo set features Sel Magique's classic and spicy blends. All of their products are sustainably produced, hand-harvested, and batch-blended. The naturally high mineral content makes these salts incredibly flavorful in small amounts. Use on vegetables, meats, salads and more.
