Cooking Tips
Use burgundy salt as a finishing salt to add texture and a subtle mineral note to dishes.
It's excellent sprinkled on grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or even on simple buttered toast.
Due to its coarser texture, it's not ideal for precise measuring in baking recipes where fine salt is called for.
