Yes, if you were watching Ready Steady Cook on Tuesday 26th, you were not seeing things. As well our world renowned sea salt we enjoyed a few minutes of fame.

The show’s host Ainsley Harriott questioned the Halen Môn team about how the company began to which company founder David Lea Wilson replied:

“All good things start in the kitchen and Halen Môn sea salt started in our kitchen with a pan on the Aga and a saucepan of seawater. "

"It was important to show viewers that our sea salt is good for everyone not just top chefs, so to reach three million viewers through Ready Steady Cook is a fantastic boost for us,” says David Lea Wilson.

 “It showed viewers how simple dishes like grilled tomatoes can be made memorable by adding our smoked salt, and this will encourage more people to try Halen Môn.”

 “It was good fun as well to see the sheer professionalism of the Ready Steady Cook team,” he says.

 “But it was a long day – 16 hours – to appear on TV for about one minute – but we will be seen by three million people – so it was worth it!”
