Irregular sheets of pure salt obtained by 100% natural methods. It is made during the summer months using the artisanal techniques developed by salt makers for generations.
The crunchy texture and laminated appearance are the result of its particular production process. The flakes originate at the beginning of the evaporation process, when fine crystals are formed and float on the surface. The crystals are harvested by hand before falling to the bottom of the threshing floor.
These sheets, as well as being produced in a privileged landscape and heritage environment, are characterised by their great natural purity. The absence of industrial refining processes means that it is rich in minerals and trace elements. In addition, its crunchy texture and great capacity to enhance the flavour of food make it highly appreciated in haute cuisine.
Añana Salt Valley Foundation
In 1960 there were 5,648 salt-making mills operating in the salt valley, in 1984 their number had been reduced to 2,338 and in the year 2000 there were barely 2,338.This dizzying rate of degradation, in which 93.3% of the platforms practically disappeared in just 40 years, led the Provincial Council of Alava to promote the recovery of the whole. To this end, a Master Plan was launched, the main objective of which was to diagnose the problems that caused the ruin of the valley and to indicate the most appropriate way and means to rescue them from the oblivion to which they had been subjected over the last forty years, preserve them, maintain them, look after them, use them, teach them and, through their use, guarantee their survival for future generations.
The phrase that best reflects the philosophy of the work carried out for the Master Plan is: "Know to restore, restore to survive". It should be borne in mind that the image offered by the Salt Valley today is the result of a complex evolutionary process, both from a political, economic and social point of view, which began when the first man took advantage of the brine from its springs in prehistoric times to make salt and ended when it ceased to be produced and the salt mines were abandoned. In order to recover Añana it is necessary to understand this process, as in this way we will recover from oblivion the empirical knowledge developed over millennia by the salt makers and we will avoid making mistakes during future works. Consequently, the methodological procedure of the Master Plan has been based on three interrelated basic pillars. The first is "documenting", the second "analysing" and the third "proposing"
