- From bcfarmsandfood... - This video shows the artisan craft of sea salt harvesting. On Vancouver Island, Jeff Abel of Saltwest Naturals demonstrates how to harvest sea salt using steam evaporation and a unique solar evaporation process.
Saltwest is one of a handful of artisan sea salt producers in Canada, and is the only commercial solar sea salt harvester in Western Canada.
Using large steam evaporation kettles, the salt harvestry produces artisan flaked fleur de sel, a mineral-rich sea salt with distinctive irregular crystals and a crunchy texture. Flaked sea salt is prized as a finishing salt, which adds flavor to vegetables, eggs, fish and meat, as well as to chocolate and caramel.
Saltwest also harvests solar sea salt, a rarity in Canada and the Pacific Northwest, where the wet, windy Pacific maritime climate poses challenges to salt harvesters. Taking advantage of the favorable summer months on Vancouver Island, Saltwest developed unique solar evaporation greenhouses to produce sun-dried salt.
Sun-dried sea salt has larger crystals and retains more beneficial trace minerals than steam-evaporated sea salt. It’s unusual square-shaped crystals provide a punchy, concentrated burst of saltiness. Solar sea salt stands out as a finishing accent for foods of all kinds.

My 9 year old son wants me to tell you that he thinks this is a truly amazing video. How you made your own business, by just living by the sea, he thinks is really cool.
Great video!! Could you tell me what type of bins you use and where did you get them? Are you worried about chemicals leeching from the plastic bins? Thank you in advance and keep up the great work!!

The only way I could do that was if you had to do a little more work and I 😮would be happy with it but you have a hard day and you don’t want me working on your day so you don’t want me doing that so you can get it all over with your own thing I would be very grateful for it if I can get you some money to do that and then you could do that but you don’t want me being here to work I just don’t know how you would do that but you would be happy with that and you know that you have a good job and you know that I’m not just a little bit kind

Mix the salt with some rice. Dry rice grains will absorb humidity.
