Looking For Fleur De Sel

[MidoriApple]

I went to many supermarkets here in Bangkok.. but found only at Carrefour, Rama 4 Rd. so far,

Price is really high 149 baht/125g, imported from France..

Too expensive for me whilst I want it in big quatity... many kilos..

Anyone know where to buy it in wholesale price, or any producer in Thailand?

better if it is made in Thailand

Thanks.

Khun Gerd: JAGOTA is a trading company, I guess they don't do production themselves. At first, I would want to call this Co. after you have instructed me, but when I also got info from Ohpont, guess their price would be higher in comparison, imported products!

Best is I must try more details both! Thank you indeed, khun Gerd..

Khun Ohpont: that is very useful information for me, price is so much cheaper. I will contact this address this very soon. Thank you very much, you are so kind.

Hi,

Thanks.

Yes, have founded two producers so far, one is Thai and another is here (above) In here seems much better deal since the Thai one quoted me price almost similar to EU's prices.. (Euro.19-20) Not worth buying.

Have contacted this above producer already, in waiting now for quotation, prices can be different from info here since it is up to quantities needs.

Anyone knows more other producers? Just in case, this one will be same expensive price

What are you using it for?

The Thai sea salt is produced in a similar way to Sel Gris, but it's very different to Fleur de Sel.

I normlly pick up a sack each time I'm passing Samat Songkralang and use it to cure fish, it works very well and it's SO cheap. But it's not a replacement for real Fleur de Sel.

No, Fleur de Sel isn't produced here. If a supplier is telling you they have Thai Fleur de Sel, they are wrong. They have Thai sea salt. Not Fleur de Sel!

Ummm.. Interesting, theseahorse..

You may be right, I am going to admit this..

I am googling for Fleur de Sel's definitions now, did before in English but now doing it in Thai as "dok gruea" <-- sorry, my BB has no Thai word), what I found is so interesting.. Thai flower of salt is about 7 baht/kg!! Ohlala..then, must be something wrong

Honestly, I just heard of this FdS not so long, and not yet seen its difference to normal sea salt. Have bought a French one from Carrefour for tasting, but need to taste more from others also.

Will see... I become confusion this time.

Thanks for educate me anyways, khun theseahorse/ cheers

EDIT: for Thai word
