A pinch of inspiration

Add a touch of refinement to home cooking with Maldon Salt’s artisan sea salt flakes – a favourite in British households for 140 years

Regardless of the occasion, culture or cuisine, both amateur cooks and professional chefs will agree that salt is the staple of all staples. It can be the difference between a good meal and an unforgettable one. Whether you’re dressing a zingy green salad or adding a hint of saltiness to a batch of freshly baked cookies, nothing beats a perfectly seasoned mouthful.

Ideal for the passionate, adventurous cook, Maldon Salt’s hand-harvested sea salt flakes are made in the English coastal town of Maldon, using the same traditional artisan methods since 1882. With a unique pyramid shape that crumbles between your fingers, each flake contains the perfect balance of natural minerals to enhance any dish with a fresh intensity and clean, delicate flavour.

This year, the family behind Maldon Salt is celebrating 140 years of craftsmanship. Now led by the fourth generation of Osbornes, the brand continues to inspire both home cooks and professionals with experimental recipes and culinary tips that will transform ordinary meals into something that bit more special.

Time to celebrate

You’ve probably heard that it’s not just Maldon Salt enjoying a momentous milestone this year – the Queen is also celebrating her Platinum Jubilee. After being granted a Royal Warrant as official purveyors of sea salt in 2012, it’s only fitting for Maldon Salt to commemorate the occasion. That's why the artisan salt maker is inviting you to seize the seasoning with a series of nostalgic pudding recipes, available on its website.

Just like Maldon Salt itself, these jubilee-inspired treats elevate traditional recipes with a wonderfully contemporary twist. Learn how to make orange and pistachio battenburg, chai chelsea buns, eton mess and more – all brought to life with a sprinkling of Maldon’s world-famous sea salt flakes.

So, whether you’re heading out to a jubilee-themed street party or hosting afternoon tea at home, you’ll be able to create extraordinary food for all your friends and family to enjoy. And who knows, you might even find your new signature.
