Beurre Fleur de Sel by L&L Plaquette is a Belgian artisanal butter containing fleur de sel from Gruissan on the French Mediterranean coast. It is made from carefully selected cream that is pasteurized to ensure consistent quality. The cream undergoes slow traditional churning, during which the milk fat separates from the buttermilk and forms a compact mass of butter. Fleur de sel is added after churning, and its crystals are larger and more irregular than ordinary fine salt. The crystals remain noticeable within the butter, creating a slight crunch and occasional bursts of more intense saltiness. The butter has a creamy, easily melting texture, while the fleur de sel emphasizes its dairy flavor. It can be served with bread and pastries or used as a finishing ingredient for vegetables, fish, pasta, and other warm dishes.
