A very delicious mixture, which gives your food the aroma of the sea (due to the aphrina) in combination with the aromas of herbs & spices.
The natural sea salt of Messolonghi has not undergone any treatment other than washing. It contains all the trace elements necessary for the body, such as potassium, calcium, magnesium.
The word "Afrina" is the local name for what is known as the Salt Flower or Fleur-de-sel. The afrina is produced only in the salt flats of Messolonghi and the reason for this is the ideal conditions that prevail. The sea is shallow and warm, so that the salt is created by itself, while the waves are minimal, which helps crystallization. The winds are of moderate intensity, able to dry the sea and carry away the foam, while the bottom is flat, without slopes.
The afrina is born on the surface of the alopygia where, as the sea dries, a thin crust of the first salt is created. Little by little, with the help of the wind, this crust will be carried away and deposited like foam on the sides of the alopygia (hence the local name "afrina").
With controlled production in natural salt flats next to the sea, quality is maintained at the highest levels. It has not been iodized (i.e. synthetic iodine added), it contains the iodine naturally found in sea salt, which is what the human body recognizes and absorbs. Natural, unrefined, sea salt contains over 80 minerals and trace elements essential to life, while refined salt has no beneficial minerals. The natural salt from Messolonghi is a very important nutritional element.
It is collected by hand, unprocessed, without the chemical impurities of common salt, for this reason the afrina maintains its natural moisture and does not flow.
When used externally, it helps in cases of frequent cramps of the lower limbs, also helping to prevent varicose veins and phlebitis.
