NYS Salt

Producer: Syracuse Salt Co. (Syracuse, NY)

Syracuse Salt Co. is thrilled to be able to offer their newest and most exciting salt, Salt City Flake. Following 4 years pursuing researching and testing we are now prepared to bring the storied salt industry back to Central New York!

From a brine well more than 280 feet underground comes this clean and crisp flake salt loaded with healthy minerals just waiting to dress up your food. The brine comes from the deep waters flowing below ground from the South of Syracuse dissolving salt along the way like it has for thousands of years.

In order to produce this beautiful flake Syracuse Salt Co. evaporates the water slowly leaving behind a pure snow white flake loaded with minerals. It is sifted to a uniform size and hand packed in 2 sizes for your use as a finishing or ingredient salt. As an added benefit because the salt comes from a well there is no risk of micro plastics as with some sea salts.

ABOUT THE FARM:

Syracuse Salt Co. - Syracuse, NY, nicknamed the 'Salt City' way back in the 18th century.  Traveling around the city in the winter months (which are about 9 months out of the year), it quickly becomes apparent where the quirky name originated from. Along Onondaga Lake, known as 'Salt Lake' in the 1600s, the roads look as though they are paved in white. Surprisingly, this is often not from the snow itself which Syracuse is known for, but rather the salt springs found along the shores of the lake.
