Pure Flake Sea Salt Tin","description":"\u003ch2\u003eAbout This Tin\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore founding Jacobsen Salt Co. in 2011, Ben Jacobsen tested 27 locations along the Oregon and Washington coasts looking for the right water. He landed in Netarts Bay, just south of Tillamook, Oregon, chosen in part because its oyster population naturally pre-filters the seawater before it's ever pumped. That detail matters: cleaner source water produces cleaner salt. The Pure Flake Sea Salt Slide Tin is the result of that search. It's Jacobsen's original product and still their flagship, a naturally formed pyramid-shaped crystal with a bright, briny flavor and a clean crunch, no bitter finish, no additives, just sea salt from one specific bay on the Oregon coast. At 0.46 oz in a 2.25\" x 1.6\" tin, it's built to go wherever you go: a jacket pocket, a restaurant table, a camp chair at dusk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe production process is hands-on at every step. Seawater is pumped from the bay, filtered, and processed through reverse osmosis to create a concentrated prebrine. That prebrine moves into boil tanks where excess minerals are removed, then into custom evaporation pans where it's carefully heated. The resulting flakes are hand-scooped, rinsed, rack-dried, and sorted by crystal size. The fully formed pyramid crystals go into flake salt. Nothing is rushed, and nothing is added. Jacobsen Salt Co. is the first company to harvest salt in the Pacific Northwest since the 1800s, and this is the salt that started it all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Makes It Special\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe Bay\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ben Jacobsen tested 27 coastal sites before selecting Netarts Bay specifically for its oyster-filtered water and exceptional salinity. The bay's oyster population acts as a natural pre-filter, which directly affects the clarity and flavor of the finished salt.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePyramid Crystal Structure\u003c\/strong\u003e: Jacobsen's flake salt forms naturally during the evaporation process into hollow, pyramid-shaped crystals. That structure gives the salt its signature delicate crunch and the way it dissolves cleanly on the palate without bitterness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHand-Scooped and Sorted\u003c\/strong\u003e: Every flake is scooped by hand from the evaporation pans, rack-dried, then graded and sifted. Only the fully formed pyramid crystals make it into flake salt. It's a 10-day process from seawater to finished product.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePerfect Pairings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinishing Any Protein\u003c\/strong\u003e: A pinch over a seared steak, grilled fish, or roasted chicken right before it hits the table. The crunch and clean brine add a final layer that seasoning during cooking can't replicate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChocolate and Baked Goods\u003c\/strong\u003e: This is a finishing salt that works as well on a brownie or dark chocolate as it does on savory food. A few flakes on top of anything sweet is worth doing at least once.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFresh Produce\u003c\/strong\u003e: Sliced tomatoes, avocado, cucumber. The salt's brightness pulls out the natural flavor of fresh vegetables without masking them. Ben Jacobsen's personal recommendation: try it on a tomato still warm from the vine.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients\u003c\/strong\u003e: Sea Salt\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.46 oz (13g)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e: Netarts Bay, Oregon Coast, USA\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFishing Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: N\/A\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jacobsen Salt Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48935434813729,"sku":"JAC-SAL-181","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/3981\/9809\/files\/jacobsen-flaky-sea-salt-slide-tin-994983.jpg?v=1747022706","url":"https:\/\/shopfishnook.com\/products\/jacobsen-salt-co-pure-flake-sea-salt-tin","provider":"FishNook Tinned Seafood Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
