Description

NATURAL SALICORNIA

Essenza Garganica’s natural salicornia combines flavor and freshness in a single jar. Hand-picked along the Gargano coast, this salicornia arrives at your table without added preservatives. Moreover, it retains its characteristic salty taste intact.

Origin and artisanal processing
The Essenza Garganica company harvests salicornia during the coolest hours of the day. Immediately after, they clean the sprigs in running water and carefully blanch them. Then, they place the salicornia in jars along with its own water and a light acidity regulator. This way, the product retains its crunchiness and authentic flavor.

Organoleptic profile
The natural salicornia has tangy and slightly bitter notes. The flavor is reminiscent of sea asparagus and enhances dishes with a touch of the sea. Additionally, the slight bite stimulates the palate and creates interesting contrasts with fresh cheeses or white meats.

Usage suggestions
You can use salicornia as a tantalizing appetizer. For example, place it on crostini with goat cheese. Also, try seasoning a salad of cherry tomatoes and basil with it. Finally, add a few sprigs to a pan with fresh pasta and mussels for an original first course.

Nutritional values and benefits
Essenza Garganica offers a product low in calories and rich in iodine, magnesium, and potassium. These minerals support thyroid function and contribute to fluid balance. Additionally, salicornia contains fiber and antioxidants. Therefore, it promotes intestinal well-being and combats free radicals.
