5 Easy Ways to Use Caravel Gourmet's French Citrus Fennel Sea Salt in Recipes

 A house blend of favorite French flavors!

French Citrus Fennel Chicken.   You can salt a chicken two ways, depending on how much time you have.   If you’re going to cook in the next hour or two (up to 6 hours), make a brine - add ¼ cup Caravel Gourmet's French Citrus Fennel Sea Salt for every 1 cup hot water (dissolve the salt) and 1 cup ice water.   Take the pieces of chicken you’re going to cook, and add them to the brine.   If you’re going to cook 6 hours or more away, then coat the pieces in a healthy sprinkle of Caravel Gourmet's French Citrus Fennel Sea Salt, wrap them back up, and put them in the fridge.  

Grilled French Citrus Fennel Shrimp.   Preheat your grill to medium heat, then mix 2 tablespoons of olive oil, a teaspoon of paprika, and a tablespoon of Caravel Gourmet's  French Citrus Fennel Sea Salt.   Toss the shelled shrimp in that mixture, then grill each side of the shrimp for 2-3 minutes, until opaque.   
Braised French Citrus Fennel Lamb Shank.    Do you know when to salt lamb shank? If you’re cooking tomorrow, sprinkle a generous amount of Caravel Gourmet's French Citrus Fennel Sea Salt tonight - letting the salt sit on the lamb longer (up to overnight) will do amazing things for this dish.  


French Citrus Fennel Fried Egg.   This is super-easy and so delicious.   When your egg is almost ready to come out of the pan, just sprinkle it with Caravel Gourmet's French Citrus Fennel Sea Salt - it’s an easy way to give your eggs instant flavor.  
Asparagus with French Citrus Fennel & Butter.   Prep the asparagus by trimming off the thick ends and rinsing in cold water.   In an iron skillet (or the heaviest one you have with a lid), heat the butter till it starts to bubble, then add the asparagus, and shake the pan to coat it in the butter.   Cover the pan and cook on medium for 3 minutes, checking to make sure it’s not burning. Uncover and cook a few more minutes until the asparagus is bright green, then add Caravel Gourmet's French Citrus Fennel Sea Salt to taste.  

  This combination of natural French grey sea salt, fennel seed, coriander, white peppercorns, and granulated orange peel creates a unique aromatic seasoning that's great on your favorite meats, potatoes, chicken, vegetables, or white fish.
