English Name: Smoked Sea Salt
French Name: Sel de Mer Fumé
Also Known As: Hardwood Smoked Salt, Smoked Ocean Salt, Gourmet Smoked Salt
Part Used: Salt crystals
Description: Smoked Sea Salt is a mineral seasoning derived from naturally harvested sea salt crystals that are smoked over hardwood fires to infuse a rich, smoky aroma and flavour. The salt is obtained from coastal regions where seawater is evaporated to produce coarse crystals. The crystals are then carefully smoked using selected hardwoods under controlled conditions, allowing the salt to absorb subtle smoky notes while retaining its natural mineral properties.
The salt crystals vary in size and have a slightly off-white to pale grey colour, depending on the source and smoking process. Each batch is monitored to ensure even smoking, consistent texture, and aromatic depth. The result is a free-flowing, robust salt that carries a distinctive smoky fragrance and flavour, suitable for enhancing a wide range of culinary applications.
Smoked Sea Salt maintains the natural mineral content and crystalline structure of sea salt while providing a depth of flavour not found in regular table salt. Its coarse texture allows it to be used as a finishing salt, rub, or ingredient in blends, ensuring controlled seasoning and visual appeal.
Uses: Smoked Sea Salt is used to season meats, seafood, poultry, roasted vegetables, grilled dishes, soups, stews, sauces, and dips. It is ideal as a finishing salt to add aroma and flavour just before serving, or incorporated into dry rubs, spice blends, and marinades. Its coarse, free-flowing texture and smoky profile make it suitable for culinary applications where a distinctive, natural smoky taste is desired.
Storage: In a cool, dry space, sealed against the elements as much as possible.
