What Are Smoked Salts?

Smoked salts are gourmet salts infused with the aromatic essence of smoke from various types of wood. From Cowboy Salt and Cherrywood Smoked Salt to Peachwood Smoked Salt and Hickory Smoked Salt, the smoking process gives these salts unique flavors that can elevate everyday dishes to extraordinary heights.

How Smoked Salt Is Made

The process of creating smoked salt begins with high-quality salt crystals. We smoke all our salts for days on end, depending on the type of wood used, to ensure that you experience the best flavor. This extended smoking process allows the salt to absorb complex flavors. The result is a selection of salts that are not only delicious but also pure — 99% of our smoked seasonings are made with only two ingredients or less, making every pinch a testament to quality!

Tips for Using Smoked Salt

Incorporating smoked salts into your cooking can add depth and complexity to your dishes. Here are some helpful tips to maximize their flavor potential:

  • Start Small:

    It's best to begin with a small amount of smoked salt. A pinch can go a long way, so taste as you go to achieve your desired level of smokiness without overpowering the dish.

  • Try as a Finishing Touch:

    Use smoked salts as a finishing touch on cooked dishes. A sprinkle just before serving can enhance the aroma and flavor.

  • Enhance Snacks and Appetizers:

    Sprinkle smoked salt on popcorn, nuts, or cheese platters for an elevated snacking experience that adds dimension and flavor.

  • Season Soups and Stews:

    Use smoked salts to enrich your soups and stews. A small amount added during cooking can introduce a warm, inviting smokiness to the broth.

  • Pair with Complementary Ingredients:

    Choose smoked salts that enhance the natural flavors of your dishes — like hickory with grilled meats peachwood with roasted vegetables.

  • Rim Cocktails:

    Use smoked salt to rim cocktail glasses for a unique twist on drinks. It pairs especially well with margaritas and Bloody Marys, adding complexity to your cocktails.
