Alder Smoked Salt
A gentle touch of smoke! Alder smoked salt brings a mild, slightly sweet smoky flavor to your cooking and makes a delicious finishing touch.
Uses
Season pork, chicken, fish, beans, and roasted vegetables. Sprinkle over salads just before serving, or try it on eggs, potatoes, and warm bread with butter. Its gentle smoke flavor works especially well with lighter dishes.
From the Colonel
Alder wood is a popular choice for smoking meats in regions where fruit trees are scarce. Smoking this salt over natural alder wood gives each crystal a mild, sweet smoky flavor, without artificial colors or flavors.
