Ask the person behind the counter at the Artisan Cheese Company to let you smell one of the already opened bottles of their Italian sale alle erbe—your life will be forever altered. Aromatic wafts of freshly picked rosemary, sage and garlic spiral out of the glass container; resist the urge to pour straight down the gullet. Imported directly from the Società Agricola Vignalta in Italy, this herbed salt reflects an age-old Veneto tradition of infusing sea salt with fresh herbs, in this case, grown on the Marlunghe estate and never dried before being blended. The wild-grown rosemary and sage are mixed with ground pepper and garlic to create this one-of-a-kind salt, best sprinked over any kind of grilled meat or fish, potatoes, soup and even your morning eggs. Insider tip: request the Artisan Cheese Co. to place you a bulk order.
Artisan Cheese Company, 1310 Main St., Sarasota, 941-951-7860.
