Salt crystals, I only eat this kind of butter. But then I come from a department next to Brittany (and the local salt also has crystals and is cheaper than that from Brittany).
Apparently it's really a local thing because I have never been able to find butter with salt crystals from anywhere else, to my dismay since I haven't lived there for a long time (but I'm close enough to France that I can still get my butter there).
- jandrewrogers 4y agoWhile nowhere near France, there is a fabulous cultured butter with salt crystals found around the Seattle metro area that is made locally (Cherry Valley Dairy). They make amazing butter generally but that style is by far my favorite.
- croisillon 4y agoit's only salt crystals if it's from the Salt Crystals region of France, otherwise it's just sparkling butter
- kergonath 4y agoYou kid, but Guérande salt is a protected geographical indication. Off the top of my head there’s also Trapani salt from Sicily.
- seszett 4y agoRight, but I prefer my butter with salt from Noirmoutier. I'm from Vendée, and it's also cheaper anyway.
- croisillon 4y agosparkling butter sounds like something i'd still eat
