They serve delicious scones at Samovar, the magic ingredient being the crystals of salt sprinkled on top with the oats. To hit a chunk of salt is a surprise, and the flavor of it blossoms on your tongue.
The same principle is at work with these Fleur de Sel Caramels, which we have become addicted to, and buy as presents for everyone we know.
I have low blood pressure, so I'm always craving salt. Not so fond of sugar, which is a good thing.

check out portuguses sea salt. especially the "2nd class" sea salt. Not white, not cleaned of "impurities". its heaven.
