Sea salt is any salt that has been harvested by evaporation from the sea (as opposed to mined). Its mineral content gives it a different taste from table salt, which is usually refined from mined rock salt (halite). How pristine and unique an area's salt content is determines its value on the market. Whether a sea salt is specialized or just “grey salt” (sel gris) depends on how it has been harvested. Generally more expensive than table salt, it is used in gourmet cooking.
