Frequently Asked Questions

What is Fresh Samphire?

›

Fresh Samphire is a coastal plant that grows naturally along shorelines. Often called “sea asparagus,” it has a crisp texture and a naturally salty flavour that pairs beautifully with fish and seafood.

How should Fresh Samphire be cooked?

›

Fresh Samphire is very quick to prepare and only needs to be lightly cooked. It can be steamed, blanched or sautéed in butter for a few minutes until just tender. Overcooking can cause it to lose its crisp texture.

Where does your Fresh Samphire come from?

›

Our Fresh Samphire is sourced either from Britain when in season or from Israel when British samphire is not available, ensuring consistent quality and freshness.

Does Fresh Samphire need to be trimmed before cooking?

›

Some Fresh Samphire may have slightly woody ends, which can be trimmed before cooking if needed. The tender stems are the part most commonly used in cooking.
