A Flight of Salt

You would pair the perfect wine with every course, select the appropriate fork for every serving, so why not choose the ideal salt to enhance every dish and take flight into a whole new world?
The Easter Sunday meal was the time to test this out. We started with the classic decorated hard boiled Easter egg and a dash of Windy City Celery salt. The next course was a fresh pea and potato soup taken to a new level after mixing in a dab of Truffle Wet salt. The aroma was heavenly. Ham slices came to life after a sprinkling of some Hickory Maple salt on top. Along side was a serving of snap peas and asparagus with vinaigrette brightened up with a pinch of the French Herb salt – a taste of Provence. And dessert? A little Citrus Wet salt mixed in with the strawberries over a luscious slice of cheese cake did the trick. Only the solid chocolate bunny escaped the salt tastings.
Have fun experimenting with your own flights and trying your own combinations!
