This week’s episode is sponsored by La Baleine, makers of ancestral sea salts harvested from France.
La Baleine’s Kosher Sea Salt is 100% natural. Unlike other kosher salts, it is uniquely harvested from the Mediterranean Sea, crystallized by the sun and sea breezes, and responsibly sourced.
Additive-free, its small, flake-like crystals make it perfect for everyday cooking. It seasons evenly, is easy to pinch, and enhances everything from soups and pastas to vegetables and meat.
👉 Grab a box here on Amazon, or find it at your local Whole Foods Market, and make this sea-harvested kosher salt a staple in your kitchen. Use code LABALKOS for $1 off your order!
