Atlas Spring is a natural, coarse-grained gourmet salt that comes from the western region of Morocco, where the Sahara Desert meets the Atlas Mountains. Centuries ago, an ancient well was dug into the rocky face of the mountain, from which salty water is drawn up and then poured into salt pans to allow the water to evaporate under the hot sun.\u00a0<\/p>\n As the well is situated in a very extreme and remote location, this unique salt is highly prized and in limited supply. Atlas Spring salt is also known as the tears of the Greek god Atlas.<\/span><\/p>\n The story of how the salt came to be goes like this: the Greek god Atlas, who carried the world on his shoulders, saw the suffering and pain of humankind. Atlas began to weep, and his tears gathered in the Sahara, where they met the hot sun. The sun transformed Atlas\u2019s tears into the treasures of the Sahara: beautiful salt crystals. What a marvellous history this salt has!<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Atlas Spring salt is a mild-tasting, mineral-rich salt that is a fantastic choice as an everyday seasoning for your meals. Thanks to its high mineral content, it is also a much healthier alternative to ordinary table salt. Thanks to its crunchy texture and pleasant flavour, you\u2019ll also avoid over-salting your food. Add Atlas Spring salt to your salt shaker and you\u2019ll have a lovely pink, aesthetic table decoration in your kitchen too!<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n This is a brilliant and incredibly simple recipe to try this summer! The salad is quick and easy to make, yet has a deliciously melt-in-the-mouth and refreshing flavour. Its fresh ingredients also make it the ideal (gluten-free!) salad for vegans.<\/span><\/p>\n At first, it might seem a bit odd to use strawberries with tomatoes, but it\u2019s definitely worth a try! The flavours of this unusual combination are so vibrant and delicious that we make this salad time and time again! It\u2019s simply delicious.\u00a0<\/p>\n Our Atlas Spring salt adds the finishing touch to this salad and really brings out the different flavours. The secret to this salad is to use sweet, ripe strawberries, as they pair perfectly with the acidity of the tomatoes. \u00a0<\/p>\n For the salad, you\u2019ll need:<\/b><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Method:<\/b><\/p>\n Bon app\u00e9tit! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n You can keep the strawberry and tomato summer salad in a sealed container in the fridge for up to three days!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Atlas Spring coarse-grained gourmet salt.<\/p>\n A natural gourmet salt sourced from Western Morocco, where the Sahara Desert meets the Atlas Mountains.
