Introducing Sicilian Fine Sea Salt, Selected by Maldon
Harvested from the historic salt pans of Trapani on Sicily’s western coast, Sicilian Fine Sea Salt, Selected by Maldon is celebrated for its balanced flavour and delicate texture. Naturally dried in the Mediterranean breeze and selected by Maldon’s Master Salt Merchants, this versatile fine sea salt dissolves easily and seasons evenly throughout cooking and baking.
In desserts, a touch of fine sea salt helps enhance sweetness, balance richness and enhances complex flavours such as coffee, chocolate and caramel.
How to Make Vegan Tiramisu with Biscoff
This irresistible vegan tiramisu layers espresso-soaked Biscoff biscuits with a silky cream made from vegan cream cheese, plant-based cream and Biscoff spread. Finished with cocoa powder, crunchy Biscoff crumbs and a luxurious salted coffee cream, it’s a crowd-pleasing dessert that’s perfect for entertaining and special occasions.
A small amount of Sicilian Fine Sea Salt, Selected by Maldon in the coffee cream enhances the roasted coffee notes while perfectly balancing the sweetness of the dessert.
For the Tiramisu
Ensure the espresso is completely cooled before starting.
We used the brand-new KitchenAid Artisan Plus Stand Mixer in Wild Blueberry for mixing. Mix the vegan cream cheese and Biscoff spread until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip the plant-based cream to soft, pourable peaks, then whisk in the vanilla and sugar.
Gently fold the cream cheese mixture into the whipped cream until fully combined.
Arrange a layer of Biscoff biscuits in a serving dish and lightly drizzle with the cooled espresso. Repeat with a second layer.
Spoon over a layer of the cream mixture, then repeat the layers of biscuits, coffee and cream until the dish is filled, finishing with cream on top.
Chill for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
Before serving, dust with cocoa powder, sprinkle over the Biscoff crumbs and finish with a spoonful of salted coffee cream.
For the Salted Coffee Cream
Place the plant cream, vanilla extract, cacao butter, sugar, Sicilian Fine Sea Salt, vanilla essence, espresso and instant coffee into a saucepan.
Heat gently, stirring frequently, until the mixture is smooth and fully combined. Do not boil.
Remove from the heat and allow to cool completely before serving or storing.
Bring Italian Dolce to Your Table
Whether served as as the grand finale to an Italian feast or prepared for effortless entertaining, this Vegan Tiramisu delivers layers of coffee-soaked indulgence and creamy sweetness in every spoonful.
Sicilian Fine Sea Salt, Selected by Maldon is available now from Tesco, Sainsbury’s, and Ocado. For more authentic Italian recipes and family favourites, explore Giuseppe Federici’s cookbook, celebrating the dishes, traditions and stories.
Golden, sesame-crusted and made with nutty durum wheat semolina, this Sicilian-style loaf is far simpler than it looks. Just semolina, water, yeast and Sicilian Fine Sea Salt, Selected by Maldon come together into a soft dough, rolled in sesame seeds and baked until the crust crackles. It’s the perfect bread for mopping up sauces or building an antipasto spread.
Why You’ll Love This Sesame Semolina Bread
A Golden Sesame Crust: Rolling the loaf in sesame seeds gives a nutty, crunchy crust and a beautiful finish.
Just a Few Ingredients: Semolina, water, yeast, sesame and a good sea salt are all you need for a proper Sicilian loaf.
Soft, Open Crumb: A long, slow prove rewards you with a light, springy crumb under that crisp crust.
How to Make Sesame Semolina Bread (Step-by-Step)
Start the dough: Place the semolina flour in a stand mixer and add the 250ml of warm water. Mix and knead for 5–10 minutes until there are no dry patches of flour. Cover the bowl with cling film and rest for 1 hour.
Add the yeast and salt: Mix the 50ml of water with the yeast and add it to the dough along with the Sicilian Fine Sea Salt, Selected by Maldon. Knead with the dough hook for 10–15 minutes until smooth and coming away from the sides of the bowl.
First prove: Cover the bowl again with cling film and leave to prove for 2–3 hours, or until the dough has tripled in size.
Shape and coat in sesame: Tip onto a lightly floured surface and shape into a long oval loaf (or a round loaf or buns). Scatter the sesame seeds on a tray, wet the top of the loaf lightly with water, then roll the top in the seeds to coat well. Set on a lined tray and score the top a few times with a sharp knife.
Second prove: Cover loosely with a plastic bag or cling film, raising the edges so it doesn’t stick to the dough, and prove for a second time for 45 minutes–1 hour.
Bake: Preheat the oven to 200°C. Remove the covering and bake for 15–20 minutes until golden brown – it should sound hollow when tapped on the base. Cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Tips for the Perfect Sesame Semolina Bread
Don’t rush the prove: The long, slow first prove is what gives the loaf its flavour and light, open crumb.
Wet before seeding: Lightly wetting the top of the loaf helps the sesame seeds stick for an even, golden crust.
Tap to test: A properly baked loaf sounds hollow when you tap the base – if not, give it a few more minutes.
What to Serve with Sesame Semolina Bread
This loaf is endlessly useful across a Sicilian table. Serve it warm with olive oil and a pinch of sea salt, alongside homemade cavatelli or grilled swordfish to mop up the juices, or as the base of an antipasto with burrata and tomatoes. It also makes excellent toast for the days after baking.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make rolls instead of a loaf?
Yes – shape the dough into small buns rather than one loaf, coat them in sesame and reduce the baking time, checking from around 12 minutes.
Do I need a stand mixer?
No. You can knead the dough by hand, though it will take a little longer to reach a smooth, elastic texture – around 12–15 minutes.
Why didn’t my bread rise?
The most common causes are yeast that’s past its best or a proving spot that’s too cold. Use fresh fast-action yeast and prove somewhere warm and draught-free.

How to Make Salted Caramel Ice Cream
Rich, creamy no-churn ice cream with ribbons of homemade salted caramel running through it. The perfect make-ahead dessert.
Make the salted caramel sauce – Place the light brown sugar and butter into a saucepan over a medium heat. Stir until the butter has melted and the sugar has dissolved. Pour in the double cream and whisk until smooth. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 3–4 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from the heat and stir through the Maldon Original Sea Salt flakes and vanilla extract, if using. Leave to cool completely.
Prepare the ice cream base – Whip the double cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold in the condensed milk until fully combined and smooth.
Create the caramel ripple – Fold approximately half of the cooled caramel sauce through the ice cream mixture. Avoid overmixing to keep beautiful ribbons of caramel running throughout.
Freeze – Spoon the mixture into a cleaned Maldon Original Sea Salt 570g Tub or another freezer-proof container. Swirl through a little extra caramel sauce for an even more dramatic ripple effect. Freeze for at least 6 hours, or until firm.
Serve – Scoop generously into bowls or cones, drizzle with the remaining salted caramel sauce and finish with a pinch of Maldon flaky sea salt for the ultimate sweet-and-salty finish.
Recipe Tips
Allow the ice cream to sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before scooping.
For extra texture, add chopped honeycomb, roasted pecans or chocolate shards before freezing.
The Maldon Sea Salt flakes provide a clean, delicate crunch that enhances the sweetness of the caramel without overpowering it.
Using a repurposed Maldon Original Sea Salt 570g Tub makes this recipe ideal for transporting to picnics, garden parties and family gatherings.
Storage
The caramel sauce will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. Gently warm before serving if it becomes too firm. The ice cream can be stored in the freezer for up to 1 month.

The Importance of Maldon Chilli Sea Salt In This Recipe
Greta seasoning is the foundation of exceptional food, and Maldon Chilli Sea Salt plays a crucial role in this recipe. The distinctive crunch of Maldon’s pyramid-shaped sea salt flakes combined with warming chilli create the perfect finishing touch for the sweet, spicy and smoky flavour profile.
Throughout the recipe, a range of Maldon Sea Salt flavours work together to build layers of flavour:
Maldon Chilli Sea Salt elevates the hot honey glaze and final presentation with a balanced chilli kick and signature flaky texture.
How to Make Jerk Hot Honey Chicken Roti
Blitz all the marinade ingredients in a blender until smooth — this is ‘Pearl’s‘ recipe and it gets better the longer it sits. Coat the chicken thoroughly and marinate overnight in the fridge, minimum 12 hours. Don’t shortcut this; the depth of flavour comes from the time.
For the roti, drain the soaked split peas and boil in fresh water for 15–20 minutes until just tender but still holding shape. Drain well and pulse in a food processor with cumin to a fine breadcrumb consistency — you want texture, not a puree. Spread on a tray and cool completely.
In a bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, butter and Maldon Original Sea Salt. Add the warm water and bring together into a soft dough. Knead for 5 minutes until smooth, then rest covered for 30 minutes.
Divide the dough into 4 balls. Flatten each, spoon 1 teaspoon of the split pea mix into the centre, pinch closed and roll out gently on a floured surface to a round about 20cm wide. Take your time — the filling wants to stay sealed in.
Mix the slaw ingredients in a bowl, scrunch with your hands and leave to soften for 30 minutes. Stir the garlic yoghurt together and chill.
Warm the honey, hot sauce and lime in a small pan until just loose. Season with Maldon Chilli Sea Salt and set aside.
Get the Weber Slate properly hot — you want a steady, even heat across the surface. Lay the chicken skin-side down and don’t move it for 4–5 minutes. Flip, baste with the hot honey, and cook for another 4–5 minutes until charred and cooked through. Rest for 5 minutes, then slice.
Brush the Slate with a little oil and griddle the roti for 1–2 minutes a side until puffed, golden and lightly charred. Keep warm under a clean tea towel.
Build: roti base, smear of garlic yoghurt, sliced chicken, pile of slaw, extra drizzle of hot honey, pomegranate, coriander and parsley. Finish with a generous pinch of Maldon Chilli Sea Salt.

A Fire-Cooked Dessert Collaboration Between Maldon Salt, Weber Grills and Chef Matt Burgess
When live-fire cooking meets modern outdoor grilling, desserts become something truly unforgettable. This Cloud Cake recipe by Chef Matt Burgess, also known as @matblak, is a bold collaboration celebrating texture, flavour and innovation – combining the versatility of the Weber Lumin electric grill with the delicate finishing power of Maldon Chilli Sea Salt.
Soft, airy, and lightly steamed under the lid of the Weber Lumin, this raspberry cloud cake is balanced with bright fruit acidity, crisp raspberry coral, white chocolate and a subtle hit of chilli salt.

Unlike traditional desserts cooked indoors, this recipe users the Weber Lumin pancha and lid system to gently steam and lift the batter, producing an airy cake with a caramelised outer edge and soft centre.

Why Maldon Chilli Sea Salt Matters in This Dish
Salt is often overlooked in desserts, but in this recipe Maldon Chilli Sea Salt plays a crucial role.
The delicate crunch of Maldon Sea Salt flakes enhances sweetness, sharpens raspberry acidity and balances the richness of white chocolate. The added chilli gives subtle warmth that lingers gently on the palate, elevating the flavour profile without overpowering the dessert.
In the cloud cake batter, the chilli salt helps heighten the fresh raspberry flavour. As a finishing touch, it creates contrast against the soft sponge, crisp coral and creamy chocolate.
This sweet-and-heat combination is what transforms the dish from a simple grilled sponge cake into a refined barbecue dessert.
What is a Cloud Cake?
A cloud cake is an ultra-light, souffle-style cake known for its airy texture and delicate rise. Inspired by Japanese souffle pancakes and steamed sponge techniques, cloud cakes rely heavily on whipped egg whites to create lift and softness.
Unlike dense sponge cakes, cloud cakes are designed to feel light, almost mousse-like in the centre, while maintaining a lightly caramelised exterior.
In this version, the Weber Lumin lid traps heat and steam during cooking, helping the cake rise gently while staying soft and moist inside.
How to Make Cloud Cake, Raspberry Coral with Chilli Sea Salt
Preheat the Weber Lumin with plancha to medium–low heat. You want gentle, even heat.
Whisk egg yolks with milk and vanilla. Add flour and baking powder. Mix smooth.
Whip egg whites with a pinch of Maldon Chilli Sea Slat to soft peaks. Add sugar gradually. Take to medium peaks.
Fold one third into the yolk mix to loosen. Fold the rest gently. Keep the air.
Fold in raspberries last.
Lightly butter the plancha. Spoon thick rounds, 2–3 cm high.
Cook undisturbed until the base sets. Close the lid to trap heat and allow the cake to rise and steam.
Flip carefully. Cook until just set. Centre stays soft. Remove and rest.
For the dressing, crush raspberries with lemon zest, juice and icing sugar. Keep it loose.
For the coral, mix all ingredients until smooth.
Pour a thin layer onto a hot section of the plancha.
Let it bubble and separate. Do not touch it.
Once dry and lightly coloured, lift carefully and cool. It will crisp as it cools.
Plate the cake. Spoon over dressing.
Add coral, micro planed white chocolate and basil.
Finish with a light pinch of Maldon Chilli Sea Salt.
Weber Lumin Cooking Tips
Always use the lid — trapped heat is essential for the signature cloud cake rise.
If the base colours too quickly, reduce the heat slightly.
Coral needs a dry, hot surface to crisp correctly.
Avoid overmixing the batter or the texture will become dense.
Cook in batches and avoid overcrowding the plancha

Why Maldon Garlic Sea Salt Matters
Maldon Garlic Sea Salt flakes are central to this recipe’s success. Their delicate, pyramid-shaped flakes provide a clean crunch and even seasoning, while the garlic infusion enhances the lamb’s natural richness.
Used both as a crust and finishing touch, Maldon Garlic Sea Salt delivers:
Bold, savoury depth
Balanced seasoning without overpowering
A signature texture that elevates each bite
This isn’t just seasoning – it’s a key flavour component.
How to Make Maldon Garlic Salt-Crusted Lamb Neck with Whipped Tahini, Rescaldo Peppers, Salsa Verde & Dukkah
Dukkah – Toast coriander, cumin and fennel seeds in a dry pan until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Tip into a mortar. Toast sesame seeds until golden, add to mortar. Toast pistachios until just coloured, 2–3 minutes. Roughly crush everything together, make sure to keep some texture. Fold in sumac, crispy shallots and Maldon Original Sea Salt Flakes. Set aside.
Rescaldo Peppers – Preheat Weber gas grill on high, all burners, lid down for 10 minutes. Grill whole peppers directly on the grates, lid down, turning every 3-4 minutes until completely charred and collapsed. Transfer to a bowl, cover with cling film, rest 15 minutes. Peel, deseed, slice into wide strips. Dress with olive oil, vinegar and Maldon Original Sea Salt Flakes.
Whipped Tahini – Whisk tahini, lemon juice and garlic together. Add ice water a splash at a time until smooth and pale. Season with Maldon Original Sea Salt Flakes. Fold in labneh.
Salsa Verde – Finely chop parsley, mint, anchovies and capers together on a board. Scrape into a bowl. Whisk in garlic, lemon zest and juice, then stream in olive oil. Finish with vinegar.
Lamb – Pat fillets dry. Rub with olive oil, press Maldon Garlic Sea Salt Flakes generously onto all surfaces, season with black pepper. Set Weber to 2-zone: one side high, one side low. Sear on the hot side 3-4 minutes per side until deep and crusted. Move to the indirect side, lid down, until lamb hits target of 55°C internal. Rest 5-10 minutes.
To Plate – spread tahini across the base. Lay rescaldo peppers on top. Slice lamb against the grain and lay this on the peppers. Spoon over salsa verde. Finish with a heavy shower of pistachio dukkah and a final pinch of Maldon Garlic Sea Salt Flakes on the cut face of the lamb.
